ABSTRACT

In recent years, environmental problems are particularly prominent, especially in the context of the global epidemic, the thinking about the relationship between man and nature has been raised to a new height. How to understand the relationship between man and nature is a question that idealism and materialism should answer, and it is also the starting point of Marxist philosophy. Marx and Engels put the relationship between man and nature into human practical activities to carry out research, and investigated the relationship between man and nature in various social and historical periods, especially the relationship between man and nature in capitalist society. On this basis, they foresaw the road of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, forming a complete and scientific theory of the relationship between man and nature. Marxist view of nature is a scientific truth that has been proved by practice. At the moment when the global ecological crisis is deepening, the only way to solve the ecological crisis is to constantly learn and adhere to Marxist view of nature. Therefore, this paper tries to discuss Marx and Engels' view of man and nature from the classic works of Marx and Engels, in order to better understand the relationship between man and nature and provide useful reference for the construction of ecological civilization.
