Scienza della natura e riconoscimento intersoggettivo. Il "pragmatismo" di Hegel

According to a “naturalistic-pragmatic” approach to the subjectivity, due to the rediscovery of the important role of German science in the years 1790-1830, in this paper we reread some texts of Hegel’s jena period up to the Phänomenologie des Geistes, in order to bring out the “natural” dimension of “Anerkennung”. In the first paragraph, we show off the “discontinuity” of Hegelian Geistesphilosophie (Philosophy of Mind) with his Cartesian presuppositions – exactly with a “territorial” mind’s conception – relying, in kantian terms, on the ineliminably “apperceptive” nature of any possible experience; in the second, we highlight the inherently relational and temporal structure of consciousness within the natural theory of recognition in the Wissenschaftliche Behandlungsarten des Naturrechts and in the System der Sittlichkeit, while the third part focuses on the relationship of self-consciousness with organic life in the Phänomenologie des Geistes.
