Document Summary
Master/slave passage = there is a dominant person, and exploited person and it ends with liberating the exploited person: object-consciousness: being aware of something. Duplication and unity: (self-consciousness) + (self-consciousness) = self-consciousness: for itself (thesis, in itself (antithesis, in and for itself (synthesis) Infinite = two mirrors looking at each other, in a two-fold significance they have to be infinite (opposite of determinate) so something does not have boundary. In reference to the master and slave (189-196) Middle = me outside of yourself me. Ex. if professor wanted to know the true opinion of the class, he would be able to access the true thoughts of the students and *dominate* their thoughts/what they see and deny their independance. Me and the other is not necessarily bodies, but perspectives in order for conflicts to reach equilibrium there must be some higher force. One is reckless, one is the coward.
