Spirit of provocation

Hello

I have problem with this sentence: "ln the Hegelian spirit of provocation, let me wrap up with something of an enthymeme."

First, What is the meaning of "In the spirit of provocation"?

Second, What is the meaning or synonym of "provocation", here?

Third, What does the author want to say?

Thanks.

The author is implying that Hegel was prone to being provocative, and he (the author) wants to emulate that. "provocation" has its usual dictionary meaning.
