Summary/Abstract: The article comments the fourth chapter of Hegelʼs Phenomenology of Spirit, which is dedicated to the last preceding stage of Reason: the Self-consciousness. It is a stage of fight, death and recognition. Self-consciousness considers itself, as oneʼs own truth. It acts accordingly to this conviction and all its situations are acts. The development of Self-consciousness in the conditions of its determination as oneʼs own truth culminates with the affirmation of the concept of Reason, for which Truth is transcendent in relation to Consciousness.
