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
