As one of the most famous phenomenologists in contemporary France, Michel Henry gave an indepth interpretation of Marx. By returning to Marx's texts themselves, especially to his philosophical texts, and centering on the problem of reality, Henry reveals that in Marx's thought, what is truly real is the individual life, not the universal like society, history, class, etc. He points out that, from Marx's view, the universal can only be founded on the individual life, and the essence of this life lies in the praxis. According to his interpretation, this praxis is radically opposed to theory, and it is not an activity of objectification, but is purely subjective. Henry's interpretation of Marx caused many controversy, but is of great significance for us to comprehend the richness of Marx's thought.
