  Ludwig Andreas Feuerbach - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ludwig Andreas Feuerbach (July 28, 1804 – September 13, 1872), German philosopher, fourth son of the eminent jurist Paul Johann Anselm Ritter von Feuerbach, was born in Landshut, Bavaria and died in Rechenberg (since 1899 a district of Nuremberg).
Feuerbach denied that he was rightly called an atheist, but the denial is merely verbal: what he calls "theism" is atheism in the ordinary sense.
Feuerbach labours under the same difficulty as Fichte; both thinkers strive in vain to reconcile the religious consciousness with subjectivism.

 Ludwig Andreas Feuerbach - Wikipedia
Nach Feuerbach entfremdet sich der Mensch von sich selbst, weil er seine eigene Beschränkheit erkennt, aber anders als das Tier in der Lage ist, mittels des Verstandes unbeschränkt zu denken, sich etwas vorzustellen.
Feuerbach erklärt die Religion für einen Traum des Menschengeistes, Gott, Himmel, Seligkeit für durch die Macht der Fantasie realisierte Herzenswünsche; was der Mensch Gott nenne, sei das Wesen des Menschen selbst: "Homo Homini Deus!" (der Mensch soll dem Menschen Gott werden; siehe Projektionstheorie).
Feuerbachs Werk hatte große Auswirkungen auf seine Zeitgenossen, von Gottfried Keller und Richard Wagner bis zu Karl Marx ("Thesen über Feuerbach", 1845) und Friedrich Engels, aber auch auf Friedrich Nietzsche, den deutschen Realismus bis hin zu Martin Buber und Karl Löwith.

 Ludwig Andreas Feuerbach
Ludwig Feuerbach, along with Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, Marx, and Nietzsche, must be counted among those philosophical outsiders who rebelled against the academic philosophy of the 19th century and thought of themselves as reformers and prophets of a new culture.
Feuerbach argues that Hegel's speculative metaphysics of "pure spirit" really must be understood as the culmination of movement that originated in the speculative theology of the Middle Ages when the naïve notion of a personal deity was conceptualized as an infinite, omniscient, omni-benevolent, necessary being.
Feuerbach had concluded from this that one of the most important philosophical and cultural tasks of his generation was to revise the way human beings thinking about the relationship of mind to nature because it was the notion of "spirit" that was crucial to both idealism and Christianity.

Feuerbach, Ludwig Andreas (1804-1872), German philosopher, who substituted religious psychology for orthodox religion and developed one of the first German materialistic philosophies.

Both Marx and Engels were strongly influenced by Feuerbach, though they thoroughly critiqued him for inconsistent materialism: Theses on Feurbach; M German Ideology, and Ludwig Feuerbach and The End of Classical German Philosophy (and others).
The second section is probably the best, Feuerbach's critique of Hegel, and final part puts forward his own position, which is very weak really, and is subject to withering criticism in Part III of Engels' booklet.
Feuerbach, who Marx described as the “true conqueror of the old philosophy”, was a revolutionary, and at the end of his life joined the German Social Democratic Party, but he retained his differences with Marx to the end.

Feuerbach's fame among the radical Hegelians, or notoriety among the conservatives, was early and immediately assured upon the publication, in 1830, of his work, Gedanken über Tod und Unsterblichkeit.
Feuerbach stops short of fully and completely concretizing man. Sometimes he speaks of man as indeed fully concretized—as the earthly, finite human individual —but at other times he is speaking of genetic man, of man in general, of the human species.
The general view was, and to a large extent remains, that Feuerbach had said everything of importance that he had to say by 1845, and that his subsequent work is either a mere repetition or a falling-away into positions (such as "vulgar materialism") which he had effectively criticized earlier.

In realtà, Feuerbach sostiene, e questo è il punto centrale della sua filosofia, che solo l'uomo è la realtà, nella sua verità e nella sua totalità.
Feuerbach afferma che per il fatto che esista una scissione occorre che qualcosa sia unito, e questa unione è proprio l'identità di uomo e Dio, in quanto Dio è presente nell'uomo come sentimento del divino.
Ora, Feuerbach avverte che nel contrasto tra pensiero ed essere Hegel afferma la priorità del pensiero, o, quantomeno, pone il pensiero alla pari dell'essere, mentre, per Feuerbach, il pensiero può solo derivare dall'essere, e non viceversa (se nulla fosse, non potrebbe esistere nemmeno il pensiero).
