Spanning from the turbulent years preceding the revolutions of 1848 through to the final years of Engels' life, this volume chronicles the development of Marxist theory in real time, as two of history's most formidable thinkers wrestled with economics, philosophy, politics, and the practicalities of organising a global workers' movement.\n\nTranslated by Dona Torr and enriched with explanatory notes, this edition — published as Volume XXIX in the Marxist Library: Works of Marxism-Leninism series — presents the correspondence with scholarly rigour, making it an indispensable resource for students and academics alike. The letters illuminate not only the theoretical architecture of Marxism as it was being constructed, but also the deeply human relationship between two men whose intellectual symbiosis produced some of the most influential texts in the history of political philosophy. For anyone seeking to understand the living, breathing process behind Das Kapital and The Communist Manifesto, this collection raises a compelling question: how much of history was quietly decided in a letter?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572785942747,"sku":"2026100011052-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/49a2db08-695a-4fc7-a348-45197464af29.png?v=1791167428","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100011052-secondhand-selected-correspondence-1846-1895","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
