About him as a person, his historical conditions, his life, his loved ones. Does anyone have any favorite biographies or even just passages from primary or secondary sources? Alternatively, if anyone has the time, what do you think is most important or interesting to understand about Karl Marx as a person, or perhaps about the historical context he lived in?
Great thread.
I confess to not having read nearly enough of/on Marx, though I’m constantly blown away by his prognostications and prescience.
I quite liked The Young Karl Marx
Filmmaker Raoul Peck has done some good work toward our cause, including movies about Patrice Lumumba and James Baldwin also.
