Vale-se primeiro do modo narrativo para evidenciar o lugar de Hess naquele desenvolvimento, aproximando o pensamento de ambos de Feuerbach e do jovem hegelianismo de onde procedem. A companhia de Hess aparece em seguida como uma espécie de sombra permanente desse passado filosófico, como uma “assombração” a denunciar pressupostos filosóficos normativos um tanto ocultados que acompanham Marx no desenvol vimento da “teoria alemã” até à crítica da economia política e à concepção materialista da história - da teologia à antropologia e ao materialismo, mais como um continuum do que como uma ruptura. Nessa evolução de ambos está envolvida a sustentação de uma posição crítica “positiva”, por uma transformação do “fundamento filosófico do socialismo” oferecido por Feuerbach: o homem como “ser genérico”, como dotado de uma essência universal objetiva, agora, em Marx, como “conjunto das relações sociais.” Por trás disso está ainda a ideia do cristianismo como suposta expressão distorcida daquela “essência real”, e do mundo religioso como reflexo ilusório do mundo terreno.UFG2013-05-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArgumentative and original paperArtigos argumentativos e originaisapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufg.br/philosophos/article/view/2023510.5216/phi.v18i1.20235Philósophos a journal of philosophy; Vol. 18 No. 1 (2013): Dossier of UFG Week on philosophy and other themes; 191-218Philósophos - Revista de Filosofia; v. 18 n. 1 (2013): Dossiê da semana de filosofia e temas afins; 191-2181982-29281414-2236reponame:Revista philósophosinstname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporhttps://revistas.ufg.br/philosophos/article/view/20235/pdfinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessde Souza, José Crisóstomo2013-10-01T15:41:54Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/20235Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/philosophos/PUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/philosophos/oairevista.philosophos@gmail.com1982-29281414-2236opendoar:2013-10-01T15:41:54Revista philósophos - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)false
