41 Spirit as exteriorization

The process of exteriorization and of interiorization in return11 that is the origin of the life of the spirit is an ‘emergence from the immediacy of substantial life’.12 Substantial life is life alienated from its immediate needs. Mediacy – as a mode of différance – is the condition of this liberation, yet equally a loss and an alienation: spirit produces itself as freedom only by chaining itself in some way to itself, insofar as it exteriorizes itself:

The power of Spirit is only as great as its expression [Äußerung, extérior­isation], its depth only as deep as it dares to spread out and lose itself in its exposition [Auslegung, déployant].13
