 abstract = {In a remarkable passage in his Logic, Hegel describes the character of finite being: “Theyare, but the truth of this being is theirend. The finite not only alters, like something in general, but itceases to be; and its ceasing to be is not merely a possibility, so that it could be without ceasing to be, but the being as such of finite things is to have the germ of decease as their Being-within-self: the hour of their birth is the hour of their death.”¹ Finite things are what they are because it is impossible for them not},
