Solution
The correct option is A Hegel
Friedrich Hegel was a philosopher and historian. He was a proponent of dialectics as a method of analysis. It was one that was based on opposites and required two theories (thesis and anti-thesis) to be proposed and compared. After a thorough, logical discussion of both viewpoints, a new thesis was to be proposed. This new thesis included the supporting statements of both the thesis and the antithesis. The process was called 'synthesis'. Karl Marx is said to have appropriated and incorporated Hegelian ideas into his own works.
