Antonio Gramsci

Antonio Gramsci was an Italian Marxist philosopher and communist politician known for his theories on cultural hegemony and the role of intellectuals in society.

"Ideas and opinions are not spontaneously 'born' in each individual brain: they have had a centre of formation, or irradiation, of dissemination, of persuasion-a group of men, or a single individual even, which has developed them and presented them in the political form of current reality."
