[5] Des Klingens unseres Gewohnheit. It is not quite clear what the meaning is here. The meaning may be as in the interpretation above. But it is rather difficult to see how, so far as mere print goes, we can be conscious of actual sound at all, unless it is intended here to include at least the act of reading; an alternative interpretation would be the "habitual verbal accent," but we should in that case have rather expected the substantive Nachdrucks for Klingens.

[6] Hegel means of course that as that notion stands midway between the objectivity of sense-perception and the concept of thought, so too this classification will be based on the attitude of the art either to the personal life, or the objects of sense, as the one aspect is more strongly represented or the other.

[7] Dem Subject. That is, I understand, the individual subject generally, not merely the conscious life of the poet or the singer.

[8] In seiner Gediegenheit, i.e., as concrete.

[9] Dies Subjektive. The realization of self in the world is part of that world regarded as a rational and self-conscious process, Spirit.

[10] Sich die Gebehrde anschliesst, i.e. a practical attitude to the world, involving gesture and other actions.

[11] Hegel's expression is "the personality of expression," i.e., the personal aspect of expression.
