Lecture 10 hegel and self-consciousness the sociality of self consciousness: Self consciousness attains its satisfaction only in another self consciousness (175) Only by virtue of other self consciousness"s that confront us are we aware of the problem of needing to satisfying our own self consciousness / desire. It will be through/ with the help of other self consciousness"s that we will be able to satisfy the yearning of our own self consciousness. How this relates to hegel: idea that we are able to achieve a recognition of bifurcation in our wills only by being confronted by will"s that differ from outs. Self consciousness requires estrangement from the activity of consciousness. This integrating activity becomes something we must integrate and impose coherence upon: this is the object of our striving. Passage 187: the relation of both self consciousness is only pure being-for-itself".
