Stuart,
I was actually looking to compare the english and the German on the
following phrase, found in the original: "Philosophical reflection has no
other object than to get rid of what is accidental". Your observations I
think are correct. Hegel is in many ways the baseline.

"Is there something 'dangerous' in Foucault's thought
that also explains the passion it continues to arouse?"
- "Dangerous, yes, because there's a violence in Foucault.
An intense violence, mastered, controlled, and turned
into courage." - Gilles Deleuze
