| Today, the mankind has been greatly improved. Air pollution, short of resources, species extinction, and vegetation destroy as well as environmental deterioration, etc. such ecological crisis are increasingly appearing. The relationship between mankind and nature has outrun the boundary of nation or geopolitics, which has become a common concern of international community a hot topic paid close attention to. Therefore, domestic and international scholars are looking for a good plan to solve ecological problem in the works of Marx and Engels one after another,making great efforts to find the quintessence in their theory. Marx's theory comes from social history practice, it takes practice as a basic point which we face, and realizes the changeover from the abstract concept of nature to a more practical one, which gains great theory contribution and practice break. As far as Marx's theory of nature is concerned, we are verily"facing the things themselves"with thinking mode of practicality, to interpret realistic significance of Marx's natural theory.Except introduction and epilogue, the thesis is divided into four parts altogether:In the first part: this thesis starts from the evolution course of the natural concept, emphatically analyses the changes of its meaning, and puts Marx's concept of nature in a large era background and the theoretical premise; based on Marx's classic works, complied with its main characteristics and the qualitative change of theory, we study the forming process of its natural concept.In the second part: based on a large number of text materials, this thesis studies Marx's concept of nature from a specific visual angle. Firstly, it is pointed out that Marx understands the nature by means of practicing. Practice causes the opposition between mankind and the nature, removes from the opposition and then results in the unity of both; Secondly, we study the real context on the priority of the external nature; Finally, we indicate that the nature has inevitably social historicity, and such the nature is the unification of historical nature and natural history by means of the social practicing. In the third part: this thesis mainly analyses one important part of Marx's concept of nature, namely humanized nature. On the base of intensively reading up texts, we point out the two meanings about Marx's humanized nature, as well as understanding it in the objective relationship; we emphatically analyze realistic foundation and class source which cause breakup between mankind and nature, put forward the solving ways: abandoning private ownership, realizing communism.In the fourth part: this thesis expounds the contemporary significance about Marx's concept of nature. Theoretically, it can further deepen our researching history of Marxist philosophy and in response to the challenge of Western Marxist concept of nature; and practically, it can provide the theoretical guidance and methodology apocalypse to resolve the problem of ecological crisis.As far as writing angle and methods are concerned, the characteristics of this thesis are to make a more comprehensive description by using several methods. Longitudinal time is the main line; this thesis is to research the historical flux of natural concept and the forming process of Marx's concept of nature in a unification of historical and logical ways, In addition, the thesis is to reproduce its main characteristics and theoretical features in using ways of reading classic works. Contrasting with others'and structural analysis are the horizontal method, we compare Marx's concept of nature with Feuerbach and Hegel's, and want to emphasize the theoretical characteristics and historical contributions of Marx's concept of nature by analyzing its highlights. |
