Fernando Rivas Rebaque: Justin Martyr as a Christian organic intellectual in Rome (second century)

In this paper, we will study the figure of Justin Martyr from the concept of organic intellectual proposed by the Italian thinker Antonio Gramsci, as opposed to traditional intellectual. While the first one is organically linked to a class or social group, usually with a progressive and marginal character, the traditional intellectual, despite their close contacts with the dominant social groups, considers itself independent of these ties, maintaining a certain feeling of of caste solidarity and cohesion.
