“Speech and work are outer expressions in which the individual no longer keeps and possesses himself, but lets the inner get completely outside of him, leaving it to the mercy of something other than himself.” G.W.F. Hegel, Phenomenology of Spirit 187
The entire work of Marx and Lacan could be considered an immense footnote and precision on this Hegelian passage.
