Feuerbach

embracing limitation

John G. Fox

pp. 106-122

Friedrich Engels, looking back on the early 1840s, wrote, "we were all Feuerbachians then" (Wartofsky 1977, xix). Marx enthusiastically wrote of and corresponded with Feuerbach, holding that "there is no other road… to truth and freedom except that leading through the Fire-brook [the Feuer-bach]" (cited in Hanfi 1972, 41–2). Yet a few short years later, in 1845, Marx wrote his theses on Feuerbach, proclaiming the shortcomings of Feuerbach's thought.
