From Enlightenment to Liberation:The Evolution of Marx's Early Thought Discourse—A Study Centered on the Text of German-French Almanac
Marx was deeply influenced by Enlightenment thought in his early years and underwent a transformation in discourse from enlightenment to liberation.In the two works published in the German-French Almanac,namely An Introduction of Critics of Hegel's Philosophy of Right and On The Jewish Question,Marx revealed the dilemmas of Enlightenment from the triple perspectives of subjectivity,objectivity,and methodology.From the perspective of subjectivity,enlightenment did not truly establish human subjectivity,but rather made capital the social subject.From the perspective of objectivity,the enlightenment state did not truly achieve human equality and freedom,and human rights had to give way to real politics.From the perspective of methodology,individuals grounded in individualism after enlightenment found it difficult to build a genuine social community.Given the reality of the German Enlightenment at that time,Marx advocated for the realization of human liberation through the revolutionary movement of the proletariat.This not only provides realistic principles and methods to penetrate the enlightenment dilemma,but also provides ideological enlightenment for us to reflect on modern issues such as freedom,democracy,equality,and so on.
