Horizontes de emancipación : Los escritos tempranos (1916-1919)

Upon completing a short school assignment, Antonio Gramsci declared his life's calling and commitment to activism: to stand with the oppressed against the oppressors. Like the young Marx, the Italian thinker displayed precocious political awareness and intellectual clarity. Thus, the importance of his early writings (1916-1919) is essential for understanding the scope of what would later crystallize in the renowned Prison Notebooks and the articulation of the great ideology of the 20th century: civil antifascism.
