Roots of The Socialist Philosophy
Frederick Engels - Feuerbach
$ 5.99

This work takes us back nearly sixty years, to a time when what is now a movement of universal significance was in its infancy. Hegel and the Revolution of 1848; these are the points of departure. To the former, we owe the philosophic form of the socialist doctrine, to the latter, its practical activity as a movement.

In the midst of the turmoil and strife and apparent defeat of those days two men, Marx and Engels, exiled and without influence, betook themselves to their books and began laboriously to fashion the form and doctrine of the most powerful intellectual and political movement of all time.

To the task they brought genius, scholarship, and a capacity for hard work and patient research. In each of these qualities they were supreme.
