with a new introduction by ERIC J. HOBSBAWM
"Very usefully pulls the key passages from Gramsci's writings
into one volume, which allows English-language readers an overall
view of his work. Particularly valuable are the connections it
draws across his work and the insights which the introduction and
glossary provide into the origin and development of some key
Gramscian concepts."
"--Stuart Hall, Professor of Sociology, Open University"
The most complete one-volume collection of writings by one of
the most fascinating thinkers in the history of Marxism, The
Antonio Gramsci Reader fills the need for a broad and general
introduction to this major figure.
Antonio Gramsci was one of the most important theorists of
class, culture, and the state since Karl Marx. In the U.S., where
his writings were long unavailable, his stature has lately so
increased that every serious student of Marxism, political theory,
or modern Italian history must now read him.
Imprisoned by the Fascists for much of his adult life, Gramsci
wrote brilliantly on a broad range of subjects: from folklore to
philosophy, popular culture to political strategy. Still the most
comprehensive collection of Gramsci's writings available in
English, it now features a new introduction by leading Marxist
historian Eric Hobsbawm, in addition to its biographical
introduction, informative introductions to each section, and
glossary of key terms.
