In Marx, industry and  science are the mediation between historical man and external nature,  leading either to reconciliation or mutual annihilation. Schmidt  explores this tension between man and nature in Marx and shows how his  understanding of nature is reflected in the work of writers such as  Bertolt Brecht, Walter Benjamin and Ernst Bloch.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49568876265745,"sku":"GOR011676811","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49735384301841,"sku":"NGR9781781681473","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51051094016273,"sku":"NIN9781781681473","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51687560478993,"sku":"CIN1781681473G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53487210037521,"sku":"GOR006142759","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1781681473.jpg?v=1770372521"},{"product_id":"concept-of-nature-in-marx-book-alfred-schmidt-9780902308411","title":"The Concept of Nature in Marx","description":"Schmidt's close reading of Marx's own writings and his relation of them to the positions of Kant, Hegel, Engels, Lenin, the early Lukacs and Sartre, enables him to establish the significance of the mature Marx's sense of the interpenetration of nature and society. He shows how Marxism cuts right across the traditional tendency to counterpose an abstract concept of man with an abstract concept of nature. Schmidt stresses the importance in Marxism of the development of industry and science as the mediation between historical man and external nature, leading either to their reconciliation (if positive) or to their mutual annihilation (if negative). He then both explores this mediation in history and shows how an awareness of its positive and negative possibilities is reflected in such writers as Bertolt Brecht, Walter Benjamin and Ernst Bloch.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49865875816721,"sku":"GOR004244249","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52083865157905,"sku":"GOR012727384","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0902308416.jpg?v=1750747701"},{"product_id":"history-and-structure-book-alfred-schmidt-9780262690836","title":"History and Structure","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51565830471953,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51565831160081,"sku":"CIN0262690837G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52089257558289,"sku":"NLS9780262690836","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0262690837.jpg?v=1751389184"},{"product_id":"fuer-einen-realen-humanismus-book-alfred-schmidt-9783631552223","title":"Fuer Einen Realen Humanismus","description":"Diese Festschrift versammelt Texte zu den vielfaltigen Forschungsinteressen von Alfred Schmidt, emeritierter Professor fur Philosophie und Soziologie an der Universitat Frankfurt am Main. Die philosophiehistorischen Betrachtungen versuchen jeweils, das Konzept eines realen Humanismus ins Bewusstsein gegenwartiger praktischer Philosophie zu rufen. Verbindendes Motiv der Beitrage ist dabei ein kritisch verstandener Materialismus, der ohne weltanschauliche Versicherungen auskommt und den leibhaftigen Menschen in den Fokus der Betrachtung ruckt. So verstandene Gesellschaftskritik orientiert sich an Gewahrsmannern Kritischer Theorie wie etwa Hegel und Marx sowie Schopenhauer, Nietzsche und Freud. Charakteristisch fur die hier versammelten Texte ist unter anderem, dass sie eine subjektgerechte Einrichtung der Welt einfordern.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52452256776465,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52452257235217,"sku":"NLS9783631552223","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783631552223.jpg?v=1759364143"},{"product_id":"tugend-und-weltlauf-book-alfred-schmidt-9783631380017","title":"Tugend Und Weltlauf","description":"Der Band resumiert Ergebnisse einer mehr als vierzigjahrigen Beschaftigung des Autors mit der Schopenhauerschen Philosophie und ihrer verzweigten Wirkungsgeschichte. Dargestellt wird ebenso die Rezeption Schopenhauers wahrend der formativen Periode der Frankfurter Schule als auch seine sachliche Bedeutung in zeitgenossischen Diskussionen. Diese beziehen sich einerseits auf Schopenhauers idealistische Grundansicht, andererseits auf die doppelte, sie korrigierende Affinitat seines Denkens zum Materialismus, der nicht nur in der Abhangigkeit des Intellekts von Hirnfunktionen zutage tritt, sondern - mehr noch - darin, da Schopenhauer nicht zogert, sein Erklarungsprinzip des Willens zum Leben vom Organischen auf das Weltgeschehen insgesamt auszudehnen. Hieraus ergeben sich neue Sachbezuge zur Psychiatrie und zur Psychoanalyse Freuds, deren philosophische Seite der Autor nachdrucklich hervorhebt.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52453212979473,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52453213274385,"sku":"NLS9783631380017","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783631380017.jpg?v=1759367156"},{"product_id":"geschichte-des-englischen-geldwesens-im-17-und-18-jahrhundert-book-alfred-schmidt-9783111274324","title":"Geschichte des englischen Geldwesens im 17. und 18.
