Abstract

Th e article presents highlights of the Hegelian concept of memory and language. Ancient and medieval philosophy sees in memory only the condition for knowledge, whereas in Modern philosophy the subject of knowledge emerges and thus the problem of memory is moved from the periphery of philosophical knowledge towards the center of refl ection on the subject of knowledge, the limits of its identity, on its border with the outside world and the extent of possible knowledge, that is, memory itself becomes a certain form of knowledge. Hegel concludes this new concept of memory, in determining the place of recollections and memory in the structure of the spirit and in the dialectics of its self-consciousness. Remembering and memory determine the stages of consciousness of the spirit, but an achievement of every stage is also a way of knowing the spirit of the other, incorporating it into one’s own structure and recognizing the nonremovability of his presence as the other, in relation to which the spirit is always on the border of itself, never confi ned within absolute lonesome equivalence to itself.
