Few revolutionaries have a heritage so contested by rival groups as Antonio Gramsci. Many use his writings as ‘sacred texts’ for their own policies, and while others stress any differences with Lenin in order to prove Gramsci a ‘rebel.’ In this stirring biography, Davidson cuts through these sterile debates and instead focuses on Gramsci’s own political and philosophical ideas.

Industry Reviews

"The book [has aged] beautifully. It still reads splendidly, from the beginning call to that which is truly contingent, 'towards'... . For like its subject, it is written into its own historicity."
-Peter Beilharz, Thesis Eleven

"From [this book] we can draw admiration for the moral strength of Gramsci himself, capable of keeping his mental sanity in prison through his commitment to intellectual ideals and loyal friendships."
-Franco Manni, Marx & Philosophy Review of Books
