I like his description of TiDE, which I've posted here in the distant
past.

        The Torah, according to Rav Hirsch, is the force that gives
        form. Form, to Aristotle's thought, means a thing's essential
        nature in distinction to the substance from which it is
        embodied. Derekh Eretz is merely the matter on which Torah works.

Very much a synthesis.

My context back in 2008 was about RSRH's synthesis in contrast to
RYBS's ongoing dialectic.
