Features: Marx adopted the term "species" (Lebensform) from Feuerbach in the Manuscripts and incorporated some of his ideas. However, Marx, having undergone a radical transformation in his worldview, had surpassed Feuerbach in two key aspects and differed fundamentally from him. This is evident in the practical viewpoint established by Marx in the Manuscripts, where he consistently regarded human practice as a sensuous activity and always viewed humans as social beings, products of historical movement. This distinction forms the foundation and starting point of Marxist literary theory.
