The point is to change it: Marx's theses on Feurerbach and the philosophy of praxis

Marxism 2016

The 'Theses on Feuerbach' was Marx's answer to crude materialism. The eleven short paragraphs constitute one of Marx's most quoted, and also contested and misunderstood works. In this session we will discuss the significance of the theses in the development of a distinctive 'philosophy of praxis', revealing what it means to say 'philosophers have thus far only interpreted the world, the point is to change it'.
