Synopsis:
|
As a thinker and writer, Friedrich Engels would be notable--especially for his THE CONDITION OF THE WORKING CLASSES IN ENGLAND IN 1844. He is most famous, even to non-readers, as the collaborator of the great political philosopher Karl Marx--together they wrote THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO. Tristram Hunt provides a thorough and engaging portrait of this important figure, including the cultural milieu in which he grew up, his education and the development of his revolutionary ideas, and his achievements as a journalist and thinker. Born in Prussia, Engels lived and worked in Manchester, England; he befriended Marx, supporting him while he was alive and translating his works after he passed on. Hunt's account brings Engels out of Marx's shadow, as he relates the growth of many ideas that led to one revolutionary idea that shaped history.
