Could a Hegelian hold that some knowledge is still objective, or would a Hegelian necessarily subscribe to the notion that all is language/culture dependent? | |

It helps not to assume the impossible... I also gave an actual answer, since I hate 'if I were something I am not' answers. | |

| Feb 19, 2016 at 19:02 | comment | added | Alexander S King | If you are an idealist, then the existence of knowledge becomes a tautology of sorts: Knowledge = Existence. I think the truly interesting case here is the dualist case. But then you would have to define "If we disappear" more precisely: I would assume my disappearing to mean total annihilation, including the annihilation of whatever otherworldly mental substances I might have. | |
