No, he didn't. Read Hegel's aesthetics, he says nothing like this. This is another myth.

Hegel said art was able to fully express itself in greco-roman art because the Idea of the Greeks was simple enough to be fully articulated in sculpture. He said the Christian-Romantic idea was too complex/profound to be fully articulated through art, so man had now transcended art, but art would still continue to be produced to express the Geist. It just isn't AS important as it was for the Greeks because they NEEDED art.

>Marx shares this sentiment
Marx was a jewish shill who made it up and other brain dead pant-shitting academics parroted it. If you look where Marx said it, he has no reference.

yeah i kinda skimmed this, wasn't really satisfactory. I've read the Corupus Hermeticum and it seemed pretty fucking gay. Of course there's the conspiracy that it was forged by the Medici family during the Rennaisance by a hired Plato translator. I think that's probably the case considering it's nonsensical horse shit drenched in Rennaisance-tier "le' rationality".

That being said, I can sort of see the influence considering Hegel thinks God lives through the mind and shit like that, very similiar to the nonsense in the Corpus Hermeticum.
