The living organism plays an important role in both Hegel and Schelling. In an organism, the organs move in an internal process and they are mutually purpose and means. Schelling and Hegel can speak of the truth of the organism, since organic life has its place in their philosophical systems. Schelling’s philosophy of nature refers to a unity of nature and spirit. For Hegel there is a gap between nature and spirit, but his philosophy is based on a concept of unity or wholeness, too. For Hegel and Schelling, the truth of the organism is that it is a self-contained whole that produces itself. The methods of both philosophers differ. In Schelling, the unity, which is determined by a previous principle, produces itself. In Hegel, this unity moves in a dialectical process which is animated by a form of subjectivity.
