Sign
Hegel (Psychology)
An intuition to which intelligence gives a meaning foreign to it. The freedom of choice is proof that it has left the content behind.

Gegen eine redensart
"It is commonly said that what matters is not the name of the sign but the thing itself. On the contrary" --- precisely because the sign does not depend on the thing, it accomplishes something.
Abgrenzung zum symbol
In the symbol, the image still contributes something; in the sign, it no longer does.
Was es voraussetzt
Validity for others. Erdmann's transcript states this: "Being-there for one another [...] for other intelligence." Winfield derives the same point from the sign's position within the system.
