It is a little formal, at least, if not pedantic, to say Ethic and Dialectic, instead of Ethics and Dialectics, and to say "Hellenes and Romans" instead of "Greeks and Romans." And why, too, the name of Antoninus being preoccupied by Antoninus Pius, will Mr. Long call his author Marcus Antoninus instead of Marcus Aurelius?
Thus Grammar included the study of the classical Latin authors, which never entirely ceased; Rhetoric comprised the practice of composition in prose and verse, and even a knowledge of the elements of Roman Law; Dialectic or Logic became the centre of the whole secular education, because it was the only intellectual exercise which was supposed to be independent of pagan writers.
His dialectic is far superior, both in quantity and in quality, to that of those who come after him. He is a seeker. His followers are not.
Like Byron's corsair, he has left a name 'to other times, linked with one virtue and a thousand crimes. The virtue was the vision, which was really in two parts. The first part was that reason is all-inclusive, the second was that things are 'dialectic. Let me say a word about this second part of Hegel's vision.

"I want you to telephone through to them and inquire about a place in Carrick called Huntingtower, near the village of Dalquharter. I understand it's to let, and I'm thinking of taking a lease of it."

Certain animals, says Oelzelt-Newin, fulfill all the conditions necessary for creative imagination subtle senses, good memory, and appropriate emotional states. This assertion is perhaps true, but it is purely dialectic. It is equivalent to saying that the thing is possible; it does not establish it as a fact.
"He has received an unfavorable oracle and the stars seem to confirm the prophecy. This puts him out of tune. Between ourselves let me tell you I know a few who are his superiors in dialectic, but in his happiest moments he is irresistible-irresistible. Since we made up our quarrel he is like a brother to me. I will defend him against all comers, for, as I say, Hadrian is my brother."
Idealism is the foundation of three philosophical schools: the Dialectic, the Atomic, and the Vedanta.
"I have asked no blessing of your reverence; he who sits in the judgment-seat may not even accept a benediction;" and he forthwith began to investigate the points in dispute between the city and the College of Jesuits. If you really want to test a man's presence of mind and dialectic skill, just engage him in an argument in a foreign language.
