Eleven Theses on Feuerbach
by Karl Marx
'Eleven Theses on Feuerbach' Summary
Eleven Theses on Feuerbach is a collection of short philosophical notes written by Karl Marx in 1845. It presents a critical analysis of the ideas of Ludwig Feuerbach, a fellow Young Hegelian philosopher. Marx argues that Feuerbach, while correctly criticizing traditional religion, still remained trapped in an idealist framework. He contends that Feuerbach's focus on abstract human nature fails to grasp the material conditions that shape human existence and consciousness. The Theses advocate for a materialist understanding of history and society, emphasizing the importance of practical action and revolution in transforming the world. It lays the groundwork for Marx's later theories of historical materialism and communist revolution.Book Details
