History could not have chosen a better representative to depict mankind's intractable drive for totality than Karl Marx. He returned the favor by paying homage to history as no other human being before or after him has done. Marx saw in history the future totalization of mankind where totality literally became a human possibility. Here was social immortality at last for the species- being. This was the moment mankind was looking for to break the barrier of limitations which surrounded particular finite beings, which impeded the search for totality and fulfillment through otherness. Totality was now within sight, if not within the reach of the human race if it chose the path of collective praxis and stayed on the dialectical path of history. The end was far but totality was within sight but as yet beyond the grasp and control of species-being.
