I am not aware that any other Socialist work, not even our Communist Manifesto of 1848, or Marx's Capital, has been so often translated. In Germany, it has had four editions of about 20,000 cop-ies in all." [Frederick Engels: from the Preface to the 1892 English Edition]
Frederick Engels was a prominent philosopher, social scientist, and revolutionary thinker. Born on November 28, 1820, in Barmen, Prussia (now part of Germany), Engels played a crucial role in shaping Marxist theory alongside his intellectual partner, Karl Marx. In 1845, Engels relocated to Brussels, where he formed a lifelong partnership with Marx. Together, they collaborated on several influential works, including "The Communist Manifesto". Engels provided significant financial support to Marx, enabling him to devote himself to intellectual pursuits. Frederick Engels dedicated his life to the study and promotion of Marxism. He continued to write and publish works on political economy, history, and social theory. His contributions played a pivotal role in shaping socialist and communist movements worldwide. Engels passed away on August 5, 1895, in London, leaving behind a rich intellectual legacy that continues to inspire generations of scholars and activists.
