Do have any beginner reading you'd recommend of Gramsci? I got the first volume of the Prison Notebooks, but it was a bit out of my league.
The prison notebooks are the bulk of his available work. I'd say read one of the "selections from Gramsci's prison notebooks" books.
This is a good starting point! There's also no shame in reading annotated versions, where more accessible authors elaborate on the ideas present in the text. I can't recommend any in English because I've only read Gramsci in Spanish and Italian, but I'm sure there must be good translations of him in English, maybe even by
's dad.
Can you recommend some of the Spanish ones?
Sorry, but I can't help you there... My philosophy professor just gave us photocopies of a book he knew was good, and I have no way of tracking those down.
Read my response to dannoffs' comment... I haven't read Gramsci in English, so I can't recommend any annotated versions, but starting with those maybe selected around a single topic (Gramsci tended to go all over the place in the notebooks a bit) could help.
