Karl Marx's "Theses on Feuerbach": The Deep Dive From The Young Hegelians to Deleuze (Part 2)
The Acid Horizon crew venture a deep dive into Karl Marx's "Theses on Feuerbach", both celebrating and challenging aspects of his classic meditation. We unpack some of the language of the text while making connections to other philosophers. Moreover, we discuss Feuerbach's critique of the image of thought and his work's influence on Deleuze as it pertains to Marx's insights.
