ABSTRACT: The Theses of Feuerbach has attracted people’s attention since it was published as “the genius
sprout containing the new world outlook”. It began to exist as an appendix to Ludwig
Feuerbach and the end of German classical philosophy. Under
people’s investigation, it is found that Theses of Feuerbach is closely related to German ideology.
Therefore, Theses of Feuerbach is regarded as the programmatic work of German Ideology, which has
gradually become an academic consensus. In Chinese country’s research, most
scholars regard the Theses of Feuerbach as the outline of the German
Ideology. However, whether this view can be established or not
should be examined in combination with the
situation of the times. Not only that, for the grasp of the specific
connotation, the elaboration of the core content also needs to be carefully compared. The Theses of Feuerbach is the main point written by Marx in order to criticize Feuerbach. Whether it
is the outline of German Ideology needs to be
reconsidered.
