January 23, 1891 Birth of Gramsci, founder of the Italian Communist Party
On this day, 134 years ago, January 23, 1891 (December 14, 1890, the lunar calendar), the founder of the Italian Communist Party, Gramsci, was born. Gramsci "The liberation of the proletariat is a difficult undertaking. Only those who are unyielding and unyielding can be competent. Only those who can maintain an indomitable spirit when people are generally pessimistic and disappointed. Only those whose will is tempered as a sword are worthy of being called soldiers of the working class and revolutionaries." This is the famous saying of Antonio Gramsci, founder of the Italian Communist Party. Throughout his life, he practiced this famous saying by himself. On January 23, 1891, Gramsci was born in a small staff family in Sardinia, Italy. He came from a poor family and completed the University of Turin through work-work and scholarships. While in college, he joined the Italian Socialist Party in 1913. After graduating from college, he served as editor-in-chief of the Turin social weekly "Voice of the People". At that time, the First World War broke out. Gramsci responded to Lenin's slogan of "turning imperialist war into a civil war" and mobilized Turin workers to hold an anti-war armed uprising. He won prestige among the workers and was elected secretary of the Turin branch of the Socialist Party. After the end of the war, the Italian revolutionary movement reached an unprecedented level, and workers and farmers were determined to follow the "Russian path." The Italian Communist Party was established on January 21, 1921. Gramsci was one of the founders of the party. In May 1922, Gramsci, as a representative of the Italian Communist Party, was elected Secretary of the Secretariat of the Executive Committee of the Communist International. In October 1922, fascists led by Mussolini seized state power in Italy. Gramsci was appointed by the Communist International to return to China to lead the Italian Communist Party in its anti-fascist struggle. Unfortunately, he was arrested in November 1926. He said sternly to the fascists in court: "You have led Italy to destruction, and we Communists must save it." Although he was tortured in prison, he still studied revolutionary theory with a strong will and wrote 32 books of "Notes in Prison", an important work in the history of modern Italian thought. On April 27, 1937, Gramsci, a strong fighter, passed away in fascist prison.
