Description
The most comprehensive one-volume collection in English of Marx's early writings (1835-1847) on the nature of religion, freedom of the press, the relation of the state to democracy, the humanistic critique of philosophical idealism, the 'alienation' of humanity, and the relation of communism to historical praxis.
Easton and Guddat's translations are based on the best German editions and on the study of original manuscripts and first editions. A substantial introduction and detailed analytical headnotes indicate the significance and historical setting of each selection, as well as its relationship to Marx's other writings.
With one exception (Defense of the Moselle Correspondent) each article, chapter, or book section is presented in its entirety, without internal deletions.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Writings of the Young Marx on Philosophy and Society offers translations praised for their clarity. The English rendition is considered more accessible than the original German, making it particularly beneficial for students who find Marx challenging, thus providing a more 'user-friendly' reading experience.
