摘要：This article aims at clarifying the two-pointed concept of nature as proposed by young Feuerbach in his work Thoughts on Death and Immortality (Gedanken über Tod und Unsterblichkeit): 1. nature as possibility and condition for all existence within space and time, and 2. nature as negation instance of all being. Nature offers young Feuerbach the model for solution of several oppositions, for one finds within it a dialectical process of assertion and negation, singularity and plurality, individual and gender. Thus, man experiments within nature not only positive assertion but also negation of his existence in the form of his ephemerality and death.
