Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First UK Edition. 8vo. Green/brown cloth. [x], 294pp. + 8pp. illustrations. A selection of 93 of Gramsci's prison letters, tracing his 'luminous thoughts on the historical role of the intellectual, Croce's philosophy, political versus civil society, the now famous concept of "hegemony", and on how to achieve the socialist victory within a single nation'. Lawner's edition originally appeared in the US in 1973. Spotting to the page edges and areas of fading to the cloth, a few leaves unobtrusively dog-eared (evidently in production), the jacket echoing the fading, also nicked at the head edge of the lower panel (not affecting the design) and spotted in places, but presentable nonetheless.

Book Description Hardback. Antonio Gramsci (1891-1937) was one of the most original political thinkers in Western Marxism and an exceptional intellectual. Arrested and imprisoned by the Italian Fascist regime in 1926, Gramsci died before fully regaining his freedom, yet he wrote extensive letters while incarcerated, rich with insight into the physical and psychological tortures of prison. In meticulous detail, Gramsci records how political prisoners, himself included, contend with the fear of illness and death and the rules and regulations that threaten to efface their individuality. Forming an incomparable link between Gramsci's intellectual passion and his emotional vulnerability, Letters from Prison shows a man reconstructing his life while being separated from it, struggling to recapture the primary relationships that once defined his identity. Frank Rosengarten divides more than four hundred Gramsci letters into two companion volumes, complete with a chronology of the thinker's crucial life experiences, an introduction that sheds light on the main experiences and themes in the letters, biographical notes on his correspondents, and a bibliography of works cited in his letters. 1975, First UK edition. A very good copy only marked by light wear to the base of the boards, light age tanning to the edges and a bookseller stamp on the front free endpaper. The contents are fine and unmarked. The d/w is unclipped and fine and now in a protective cover. Scans available if required. Seller Inventory # 15332056
