Youth, like growth, is restless; growth, like youth, would lay the future open in the present. Apathy is their common enemy, and they are allies in the fight for that which has never been but is now coming into its own. Now is its day; and its day is as young and as vital as those who proclaim it and keep faith with it. If we look back to the very dawn of our daytime, we look back to the young Marx in his first years of intellectual ferment. What we can learn of one who was surely the most passionately alert of all students is encouraging, and a chal­ lenge to us, the heirs of his maturity. We still have a letter of November 1837 that the nineteen-year-old Karl wrote to his father-who lived in the same town as Jenny von Westphalen, his son's future wife. But this letter addressed to "Dearest Father" does not merely throw light on the relations between Dr. Heinrich Marx and his famous son: its fresh and creative spirit makes it a living document for every young student. Of course, this is a vivacity characteristic of the letters of great writers in their youth (one thinks of Goethe in Leipzig and Strasbourg, of Byron, of Georg Buchner). But here one can 9 ON KARL MARX sense the ardor of the great thinker to come. Even though Jenny gives occasion for a more lyrical note, this is a letter without equal as a record of a young philosopher's tempes­ tuous and far-ranging mind. The young man's every experience is heightened: "The rocks could not be sharper than my sensibility .. and art itself could not match Jenny's beauty. " Everything he sees is rich with significance, yet everything is ready to change and make room for something new in the wind."Every metamor­ phosis, " writes this student whose maturity would be so meaningful for the world's future, "is partly a swan song and partly the overture to a great new poem which, in a medley of blurred though brilliant colors, is still struggling to emerge as form." Marx responds to a world in the process of develop­ ment; to a summons and to a melody; to that which comes into being and then must pass away. Yet he checks any tendency to dream vaguely of the future; all the anticipation of a Marx-in­ becoming moves him to engage in an insatiable though exact­ ing tussle with the scholars: with law and philosophy. This is Marx as a young Faust-'-not Goethe's,but the flesh-and-blood Faust proper to the age. Three and a half years were to pass before he submitted his doctoral dissertation, and the Marx of this letter is neither the pure idealist of his poems nor a skeptic. His approach is already essentially logical and scientific, and, rather than follow the Mephistophelean counsel to "despise reason and knowledge, " he is filled with enthusiasm for these doors of entry to the world. The shape the future will take, its actuality, is being established in the ferment of the present; out of subjectivity and abstraction must emerge the face of concrete reality-the thing that really matters. The only ob­ structions are the mists of false consciousness and abstract thought, both of which Marx rejects-together with Hegel, and against him: "In the concrete expression of a living world of ideas, such as law, the State, Nature, and philosophy as a whole, the object itself must be observed as it develops. There must be no arbitrary categorizations: the rationale of the thing itself must proceed in its own course of internal con- 10 MARX AS A STUDENT tradiction and so attain to its own intrinsic unity." Mind is still the agent, but the perception of the later Marx is already apparent in the inversion-the "standing on its feet"-of the ratio of the thing. Obviously the writer of this letter is not wrapped up in himself. Though his quest for knowledge is no uniform, untroubled process, but one which has known blind alleys and moments of obscurity, it is always undertaken anew, moves ever onwards. Marx describes the quantity of writing he has done: poems, a vast opus on the philosophy of law, a dialogue, notes, notes, notes; manuscripts which ended in anguish or self-reproach; and his voracious reading and expeditions a­ cross and straight through the globus intellectualis; yet all related with the eagerness of an explorer in virgin lands. This optimism contrasts remarkably with the merely imitative intel­ lectual spirit predominant in post-Hegelian Berlin-a twilight feeling, as if somehow nothing really impressive could be produced after Hegel, by whom the world had been thoroughly schematized; as if the "world spirit" had arrived philosophi­ cally in Hegel's teaching, and all that was left for young philosophers was to transplant it from its initial Berlin res­ idence to the left, or subjective and "critical," side of "self-consciousness." The stirrings of the 1848 revolution were not felt in this environment, and were not produced by an idealism which the left Hegelians had endowed with a spurious rigor and clarity. The opposed wretchedness of the period before the March Revolution of 1848 was only increased by an apathy which was unopposable on an idealistic basis-an intellectual decadence which continued to affect the entire prescriptive philosophy of the nineteenth century, apart from Marxism. The most obviously unique characteristic of the young Marx was his objective and youthful vigor amid the surrounding post-Hegelian decay. The young philosopher was concerned essentially neither with himself nor with the insipid flatlands about him; instead he reflectedthe light of a world that had not yet come to be but on whose horizon he stood. The letter of 11 ON KARL MARX 1837 and the doctoral dissertation of 184 1 are wholly free of the lethargy of idealism; and more than a knowledge of Feuerbach enabled their author to see the era not as one of mellow decay but as a turning point-a material turning point, ,with Marx as the discoverer of the new. Hence the wholly public self-consciousness of the young Marx: a self-awareness concerned with the actuality of the future as the future of actuality. His genius accorded with the revolutionary mandate of the age; the subjective and objective suasions to shape the future were allied. Rosenkranz, a contemporary Hegelian, offered a formulation in his Psychology (1843) that found its living exponent in Marx: "The characteristic quality of genius is not, like that of talent, a formal versatility (even though it , can enjoy that too), but a realization of what is objectively , necessary in a certain sphere as its individual destiny. Accord­ ingly, a man of genius is properly exercised only in the development of history, for he must pass directly beyond everything that is merely given, as it is, and obtain as personal gratification that which, according to the objective process of the matter, is really timely. He prevails with a daemonic force in the accomplishment of this task; apart from it he is powerless, and despite his undoubted versatility in the acquisi­ tion of knowledge can achieve nothing really new." Of course, "personal gratification" did not apply to the young Marx; he went beyond the implications of this bourgeois term in being moved by objective optimism-a mutual illumination in which no distinction might be made between the individual and his task. The student's letter and the dissertation offer fore­ glimpses of what Marx was to write not so long after-in 1843: "Just as philosophy discovers its material weapons in the proletariat, so the proletariat discovers its intellectual weapons in philosophy" (Introduction to A Contribution to the Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right). No longer overawed by his mentor, Marx took what was living in Hegel's philosophy, and became his true heir in making the proletariat's right to inherit the earth his prime concern. And so the young Marx asserted his youthful spirit and 12 MARX AS A STUDENT affirmed its true value. He was not one of the many famous young men who have been lauded for their retreat into the self, into the world-weariness of the solitary guardian of a precious inner flame. Nor did he practice a stoic aloofness from the affairs of the world, but dismissed such an attitude as tant­ amount to the behavior of the moth which, "when the univer­ sal sun has gone down, seeks the lamplight of a private world." Least of all was the apprentice dialectician lacking in a sense of history, conceived as mediation and transition.

  • Loneliness of Human in the Philosophy of Ernst Bloch Culture
    SHS Web of Conferences 72, 03002 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/shsconf /20197203002 APPSCONF-2 019 Loneliness of human in the philosophy of Ernst Bloch culture Pavel Lyashenko 1, and Maxim Lyashchenko 1 1Orenburg State University, 460018, Orenburg, Russia Abstract. The problem of loneliness from the view point of philosophical and anthropological knowledge acquires special significance, is filled with new content in connection with the unfolding of the modern society transformation processes, as a result, with a new stage in the reappraisal of the modern culture utopian consciousness. At the same time, Ernst Bloch's culture philosophy induce particular scientific interest, according to which the meaningful status of utopia is determined by the fact that it forms a certain ideal image of the human world, which is the space of culture as a whole. In this regard, the study of the loneliness phenomenon in Ernst Bloch culture philosophy allows us to identify the socio-cultural mechanisms of loneliness, as well as key factors in the development of modern society, leading the person to negation and the destruction of his being. 1 Introduction Like a lot of factors that form the everyday world of human, loneliness, culture, utopia belong to the phenomena of human being that are complex for scientific and philosophical comprehension. Turning to the theoretical heritage of the past and modern philosophical research leads to mutually exclusive judgments about loneliness, about culture, and about utopia. Sometimes we come to the idea of the incompatibility of these phenomena, in the absence of any strong and stable connection between them.

  • Through the Brook of Fire: Marx'sconceptofspecies- Being Andhisbreakwith Feuerbach
    1 WALKER THROUGH THE BROOK OF FIRE: MARX’S CONCEPT OF SPECIES- BEING AND HIS BREAK WITH FEUERBACH Grayson Shade Walker Supervised by Dr. Gabriel Gottlieb 30 April 2021 2 WALKER 1 | INTRODUCTION Once upon a time a valiant fellow had the idea that men were drowned in water only because they were possessed with the idea of gravity. If they were to knock this notion out of their heads, say by stating it to be a superstition, a religious concept, they would be sublimely proof against any danger from water. His whole life long he fought against the illusion of gravity, of whose harmful results all statistic brought him new and manifold evidence. This valiant fellow was the type of the new revolutionary philosophers in Germany.1 -- Karl Marx The task of this paper is to re-visit a concept that has long escaped proper clarification: Gattungswesen, or species-being. Many scholars have often assumed that the concept has no bearing on Marx’s later developments, or that it invariably bears the baggage of idealistic humanism not yet shorn by the younger Marx.2 While there may be traces of an incipient idealism in the early Marx—a product of his own post-Hegelian milieu—this paper will show how Marx inherits Feuerbach’s concept of species-being and, by overcoming its limitations, arrives at a new concept of humanity. I will show how Feuerbach fails to materialistically inverse Hegel, and how this failure leads him to a concept of man that is ultimately ahistorical—as it fixes a human essence beyond human history—and is idealist, to the extent that it begins from abstractions from the world.

  • 1 Marx 1845 Or the Fateful Rejection of Anschauung Abstract One of Karl
    Marx 1845 or the Fateful Rejection of Anschauung Abstract One of Karl Marx’s strongest condemnation is that of Ludwig Feuerbach’s intuitive- contemplative materialism in his Theses of 1845. This condemnation famously leads him to an understanding of human activity as purely objective and of “revolution” as praxis, that is, as a “practical-critical” activity exclusively based on reason and reason alone. The question that is rarely asked about this condemnation is this: what is lost in this abandonment of the intuitive-contemplative on the way to historical materialism? The aim behind this question is purely speculative. It does not intend to provide yet again a historical reading of this famous turning point in Marx’s move away from Feuerbach. It simply intends to see whether something could be gained instead from revisiting Feuerbach’s understanding of the intuitive- contemplative and whether this could allow us to move beyond the 21st Century deadlock of Marx’s “rational praxis.” In terms of reading, the essay will concentrate not only on Marx’s Theses and the “works of the break,” but also on key aspects of Feuerbach’s understanding of intuition-contemplation, as well as contemporary readings of this major turning point in history, especially those in the French Marxist tradition such as Bloch, Henry, Althusser, Macherey, and of course, Balibar. Keywords Marx, Feuerbach, Praxis, Intuition, Anschauung, Materialism Introduction: The Condemnation One of Karl Marx’s strongest condemnation is that of Ludwig Feuerbach’s intuitive- contemplative materialism in his famous Theses of 1845. The disapproval is crystal clear: “[Feuerbach] does not grasp the significance of ‘revolutionary,’ of ‘practical-critical,’ activity.” (Marx and Engels 2008, 69).

The originality of this overview of Marx’s ideas and life lay in Yoshimoto’s stress on the young Marx’s theory of alienation as an outgrowth of a unique philosophy of nature, whose roots went back to the latter’s doctoral dissertation. It echoed Yoshimoto’s own reformulation of “alienation” (and Marx’s labor theory of value) as key concept in his theory of literary language (What is Beauty in Language), which he had just completed in 1965, and extended his argument -- ongoing from the mid-1950s -- with Japanese Marxism over questions of literature, politics, and culture. His extraction of the theme of “communal illusion” from the early Marx foregrounds his second major theoretical work of the decade, Communal Illusion, which he started to serialize in 1966 and completed in 1968, and outlines an important theoretical closure to the existential, political, and intellectual struggles he had waged since the end of the ii Pacific War.

  • Theses on Feuerbach
    Marx/Engels Internet Archive Theses On Feuerbach I The chief defect of all hitherto existing materialism - that of Feuerbach included - is that the thing, reality, sensuousness, is conceived only in the form of the object or of contemplation, but not as sensuous human activity, practice, not subjectively. Hence, in contradistinction to materialism, the active side was developed abstractly by idealism -- which, of course, does not know real, sensuous activity as such. Feuerbach wants sensuous objects, really distinct from the thought objects, but he does not conceive human activity itself as objective activity. Hence, in The Essence of Christianity, he regards the theoretical attitude as the only genuinely human attitude, while practice is conceived and fixed only in its dirty-judaical manifestation. Hence he does not grasp the significance of "revolutionary", of "practical-critical", activity. II The question whether objective truth can be attributed to human thinking is not a question of theory but is a practical question. Man must prove the truth — i.e. the reality and power, the this-sidedness of his thinking in practice. The dispute over the reality or non-reality of thinking that is isolated from practice is a purely scholastic question. III The materialist doctrine concerning the changing of circumstances and upbringing forgets that circumstances are changed by men and that it is essential to educate the educator himself. This doctrine must, therefore, divide society into two parts, one of which is superior to society. The coincidence of the changing of circumstances and of human activity or self-changing can be conceived and rationally understood only as revolutionary practice.

ABSTRACT: This text proposes to overcome the wide-spread error of dismissing Marx’s critique of all materialism before him as being reduc- tionist and therefore philosophically and scientifically unacceptable. Instead, it attempts to create a non-reductionist understanding and practice of materialism in philosophy — especially by referring to key contributions by Althusser and Bhaskar and by criticizing the ‘mater- ialist illusion’ of the early Marx — thereby articulating another key element of the ‘finite Marxism’ defended by the author.
