Excerpt from Hegel's Philosophy of Right
The object of the translator is to let Hegel speak at large for himself. What liberties have been taken with the Hegelian vocabulary are illustrated by the index of words to be found at the close of this volume. It has been con sidered quite within the province of a translator to ameliorate Hegel's rigid phraseology. Even as it is the English would read more smoothly, had the words the individual, the subject, etc., been more frequently used instead of particularity and subjectivity, but the substitution casts a different shade over Hegel's thought. Apart from the words, the reader of German will miss also Hegel's brackets and italics.
