«Che cos'è l'uomo?» Motivi kantiani negli scritti di Antonio Gramsci

fa parte di Il Cannocchiale , pp. 57 - 76
This essay aims to show that the presence of Immanuel Kant in Gramsci's writings enhances as a steady landmark the attempt to re-construct a philosophy of praxis which would prove to be alternative to both the dogmatism of the dialectic materialism in the Soviet Union and, at the complete opposite, the "ideologism" of what was to be defined as western marxism. By following Gramsci's fluctuation and development in the evaluation of Kant's philosophy, which does not imply an actual rapprochement of Gramsci to neo-Kantism, and even less any kind of merging between Marxism and Kantism, it will be showed that Gramsci's assertion, that wondering "What is man?" is "the first and principal question in philosophy" expressly refers to Kant's Anthropology from a pragmatic point of view.
