This essay on natural law throws much light on the \u003ci\u003ePhenomenology\u003c\/i\u003e soon to appear as well as the later \u003ci\u003ePhilosophy of Right\u003c\/i\u003e. It amounts to a philosophical declaration of independence for Hegel: his departure from the theological preoccupations of his youth on the one and the tutelage of Kant and Fichte on the other. \u003ci\u003eThe Phenomenology of Spirit\u003c\/i\u003e will announce his independence from Schelling, too, and philosophy will henceforth play for him the role formerly held by religion in the life and destiny of a people.\" * J.
