[92] Einheit—unity to the point of fusion, identity.

[98] I think that Hegel in his use of erste here rather refers to the fact of past history than a fact in the individual history of nations. "Art is, in the early days of history, the instructress of nations," gives, I think, his meaning. It is the first instructress in the history of nations.
[99] I venture to think if Professor Bosanquet's translation were the right one the German would be ein in sich selbst gebrochenes.
