“Subjectivity” is a very important subject in philosophy and has always been concerned popularly.From ancient Greece to the middle of the 19 th century,traditional philosophy regard humanity as an existence of abstract,evolved to marx's philosophy that combine the materialism,and humunity's subjectivity.This shift also means the change of philosophical theme.That is,from “how the world can”to“how the liberation of humanity can”.Marxist philosophy focus on the reform of existing world and liberation of humanity and realise the unification of the reality and ultimate concern of humanity.In this article,we first established that the subject is human.Based on the premise that human being is the subject,subjectivity is the characteristic of self-consciousness,autonomy,dynamics,and creativity that are manifested in people's practical activities and cognitive activities.Based on this,the development of subjective thoughts can be traced back through four historical stages,namely,the germination stage of the ancient Greek period,the deprivation stage of the medieval scholastic philosophical period,the affirmative stage of the Renaissance period,and the period of high morality in the period of German classical philosophy.Through the history of the thought of subjectivity,it can be seen that Marx's thoughts have developed on the basis of discarding the results of previous generations.In Marx's view,conscious and practical labor constitutes the inherent essence of human beings,and this kind of practical labor is also the way in which people are active in the free and involuntary state.Human subjectivity is also exerted in this kind of free and practical state.It is also on the basis of this premise that Marx believes that in the capitalist society,between man and his own production of labor,between man and his own labor,between man and his nature,between man and man.There is an alienation relationship between them,that is to say,under this alienation relationship,the person becomes an individual controlled and trivialized,and the human subjectivity is deprived in this state.Therefore,the elimination of alienation and the realization of the return of human nature become new issues.Therefore,Marx first criticized the way that three kinds of communism abandoned private property,and concluded that the past three communist propaganda abandoned personal property didnot reach the discrepancy of alienation,and the sublation of private property was the sublation of alienation.Second,by critique of Hegel's "human = self-consciousness" as an abstract understanding of human ways,it is pointed out that people are real,living people.Through the critique of the three ways of abandoning private property and the sublation of Hegel's philosophical thoughts,the human nature has returned.Only on the premise that the essence of human beings can be returned,can human subjectivity be exerted in practice.It is of great significance that the idea that the subjectivity can be brought into play after the return of the essence of man pointed out by Marx.The first thing that can be ascertained is that the human subjectivity cannot be eliminated;secondly,this way of understanding surpasses the abstract understanding of the subject by the predecessors;finally,Marx believes that the subjectivity can be exerted only after the return of human nature.This thought also provides theoretical support for the free and comprehensive development of human beings.
