Week 5--Wednesday Class Reflection

Since Marx’s anthropology sees what humans eat as the most defining aspect of what it means to be human, there is an interesting parallel with the centrality of the Lord’s Supper and this idea of Marx. I would be interested to find out if Marx viewed people eating together in terms of how it builds relationships, or if he only viewed it as the most primal urge for humans.

great question, worthy of exploration for sure. He may have seen it as something else completely, a way of rallying the masses, passing on a particular message, getting the revolution started, etc? Or none of them at all...
