These extracts from his pre-prison correspondencewith his wife and her sister, international communist leaders, and fellow Italian revolutionariesshow his most important ideas at their beginnings, and give a well rounded picture of Gramsci’s political, intellectual, and emotional development.

Antonio Gramsci (18911937) was a founding member of the Italian Communist Party, and among the twentieth century's most influential theorists.
