As a consequence of this fame, Gramsci?s heritage is claimed by rival groups: on the one hand by those who hope to establish his writings as ?sacred texts? for their own policies and on the other by those who stress any differences with Lenin in order to prove Gramsci a ?rebel?. A great merit of this biography is that it lifts the study of Gramsci away from the sterile debate about whether he was or was not a Leninist; another achievement of the author has been to integrate the circumstances of Gramsci?s life ? the childhood in Sardinia, the politics of the left in the 1920s, the years of exile and prison ? with his developing political and philosophical ideas. 410 0$aHistorical Materialism Book Series$v129. 606 $aCommunists$zItaly$vBiography 606 $aCommunists$2fast 607 $aItaly$2fast 608 $aBiography.$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCommunists 615 7$aCommunists. 676 $a335.43092 700 $aDavidson$b Alastair$f1939-$0145067 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155552803321 996 $aAntonio Gramsci$91900240 997 $aUNINA
