Does one absolutely need to read Hegel to understand Marx? I

>>8717783
Have you read any kant

>>8717783
Anyway you don't need to unless your interested in german idealism as a whole. Just watch some lectures on youtube

>>8717796
The Prolegomena and some of the Critique of Pure Reason. Should I read all of it?

>>8717825
nah it's unnecessary for Marx. You sound good to go, maybe just watch a lecture or two on hegel and marxs similarities

>>8717843
Oh okay, thanks. I appreciate the advice.

PoS is more valuable than all of Marx's writings combined, though.

If you read Hegel you don't need Marx at all.

Ethan?

nah, you're good to go. marx and especially engels explain their hegelian roots and understanding of the dialectic in really easy terms more than once.

"no"

>>8717866
But Marx is laughably shit.
If you read Hegel, you're gaining nothing from Marx.
