Owing to the influence of Aristotle, Marx believed the essence of man's nature was from the potential to the actual. Early on, Marx's philosophy was also influenced by Hegel and Feuerbach, which gave rise to his notion of man as an animal of labor and production. The difference between man and other animals is that man's essence is in his spirit. This essence, however, in the annuals of history and the social stage has met with twists and alienation. This is why the young Marx emphasized the alienation of the self. Marx later for the most part discarded speculative philosophy and the notion of essence, no longer emphasizing man's particular essence. He later started to employ political and economic thought in criticizing the social status quo. This is why the more mature Marx emphasized humanity was the sum of social relations. He thus felt that man's ultimate life would be in a stateless, classless society, free from alienation and exploitation. This was to be achieved in the coming of a communist society and the practical completion of man. These societies could be said to have been the culmination of Marx's hope for the realization of man's essence. This essay would like to look at the different stages of Marx's notions of human nature, and also offer some criticism on his utopian ideals of that nature.
