An Analysis of the Relationship between the Concept of Nature and the Transformation of Marx's Philosophy
From Hegel,Feuerbach to Marx,the intellectual connection between them occurs first through the concept of nature.Taking nature as an entry point,Feuerbach criticized the idealistic nature of Hegel's philosophy,restored the authority of materialism,and laid the foundation of materialism for the formation of Marx's thought.By criticizing Hegel's"double error",Marx established the basic coordinates of criticism of Hegel,absorbed the Hegelian dialectic,and provided the methodological basis for the formation of his own thought,while Hegel's"double error"was related to nature.In epistemology,Marx was dissatisfied with"all the former materialism"including Feuerbach,which claimed understanding nature only from the perspective of the object,and disagreed with the idealism represented by Hegel,which claimed understanding nature only from the perspective of the subject,but advocated understanding nature from the perspective of both subject and object and from the aspect of practice.Grasping the two factors of nature and spirit,and taking the perspectives of the subject and the object as the dual angle of understanding nature,Marx constructed a new materialist concept of nature and used it as a port of philosophical change.It can be said that the concept of nature has an important role at the beginning of philosophical revolution,and is a window to understand Marx's philosophical change.
