Miychi,

This does not come from an article, it comes from the 1844 Mss. which
were never intended for publication, and exhibit a very undeveloped
stage of Marx's thought. In just a few years he ceased to speak of
"human essence" in such terms.

It is probably best never to quote from Marx's writings of the early
1840s without giving your own careful interpretation of what you think
he is saying. His words are simply too exploratory and unfinished to be
very useful by themselves.

And of course Sabri is quite right about the writing style in this
passage -- it is more than difficult; it is almost unreadable. :-) But
it should not be taken as representative of Marx's writing.
