Lack of any citations

The pages has a complete lack of citation, and the only one "source" is almost unrelated to Gramsci or Prison Notebooks. I have hence, added citation lacking template even though there's supposedly one source.Appoox 20:26, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

Gendered language

In some sections the entry describes Gramsci's views and refers to "man" ... and perhaps Gramsci did think that men had a monopoly on intellectualism, politics, and culture. See for example, "He was impressed by the power Roman Catholicism had over men's minds ...". Did he not care about the Church's power over women's minds?

In other sections, the entry appears to use gendered language in its own prose: "Furthermore, philosophy and science do not 'reflect' a reality independent of man, but rather are only 'true' in that they express the real developmental trend of a given historical situation."

Would anyone be opposed to adjusting the language to gender-neutral in many of these cases?
