Les passions sont à présent retombées. Un intérêt subsiste pour son œuvre, mêlé de scepticisme. Surtout, les questions subsistent sur sa personnalité, sur son cheminement, sur son couple. Tiraillé et tenaillé entre intuition et rationalité, entre poésie et cynisme, entre vision du futur et goût des classiques, entre révolution et racines bour- geoises, Marx, que tant de contradictions auraient pu conduire à l’impuissance du désespoir, a eu pour ciment et pour miroir la figure de son épouse, non moins complexe. Celle-ci appartient depuis longtemps à une légende qu’il est temps de ramener dans le champ de l’Histoire. Jenny Marx est le produit d’une hybri- dation entre progressisme et conservatisme. En cela elle est le reflet féminin de Marx. Si elle épouse sans nuance les causes de son mari, Jenny Marx sera toute sa vie marquée par son éduca- tion et sa naissance, par une double affiliation aristocratique et bourgeoise. Particulièrement révélatrice est la lettre que, à 57 ans, elle adresse à son ami Wilhelm Liebknecht, un socialiste de la première heure, au sujet d’un épisode dramatique de la Commune. Le 3 avril 1871, lors d’une sortie infructueuse des Parisiens en direction de Rueil, le communard Gustave Flourens – que les Marx avaient bien connu pendant son exil à Londres – a été capturé. Il est tombé quelques instants plus tard sous les balles des Versaillais. Il avait 25 ans. Jenny Marx écrit alors ces lignes, qui seront reproduites dans le journal socialiste Volksstaat : 15 Jenny Marx Je ne peux exprimer dans quel état de nervosité, de crainte et de désespoir nous nous trouvons tous ici à la maison. […] Au pre- mier chef nous avons été profondément bouleversés par la mort de Gustave Flourens. Nous avions noué avec lui des relations d’amitié. […] Flourens, maintenant tombé sous les coups d’une brochette de bonapartistes qui en ce moment jouent les exécuteurs des

    A Dissertation Entitled Yoshimoto Taka’aki’s Karl Marx: Translation and Commentary By Manuel Yang Submitted as partial fulfillment for the requirements for The Doctor of Philosophy in History ________________________ Adviser: Dr. Peter Linebaugh ________________________ Dr. Alfred Cave ________________________ Dr. Harry Cleaver ________________________ Dr. Michael Jakobson ________________________ Graduate School The University of Toledo August 2008 An Abstract of Yoshimoto Taka’aki’s Karl Marx: Translation and Commentary Manuel Yang Submitted as partial fulfillment for the requirements for The Doctor of Philosophy in History The University of Toledo August 2008 In 1966 the Japanese New Left thinker Yoshimoto Taka’aki published his seminal book on Karl Marx. The originality of this overview of Marx’s ideas and life lay in Yoshimoto’s stress on the young Marx’s theory of alienation as an outgrowth of a unique philosophy of nature, whose roots went back to the latter’s doctoral dissertation. It echoed Yoshimoto’s own reformulation of “alienation” (and Marx’s labor theory of value) as key concept in his theory of literary language (What is Beauty in Language), which he had just completed in 1965, and extended his argument -- ongoing from the mid-1950s -- with Japanese Marxism over questions of literature, politics, and culture. His extraction of the theme of “communal illusion” from the early Marx foregrounds his second major theoretical work of the decade, Communal Illusion, which he started to serialize in 1966 and completed in 1968, and outlines an important theoretical closure to the existential, political, and intellectual struggles he had waged since the end of the ii Pacific War.

  • Memória, Resistência E Intelectualidade Em Jenny Marx
    Memória, Resistência e Intelectualidade em Jenny Marx THAIS DOMINGOS DOS SANTOS RODRIGUES* Resumo: Este artigo tem por objetivo elucidar a potência de resistência e intelectualidade de Jenny von Westphalen, colocando em debate o papel da mulher na produção de conhecimento e seus atrofiamentos numa sociedade patriarcal. Utilizamos como metodologia a análise de produções recentes e mais antigas como a biografia de Mary Gabriel – Amor e Capital: A Saga Familiar de Karl Marx e o Nascimento de Uma Revolução (2013), o filme O jovem Karl Marx (2017) de Raoul Peck e a biografia de Françoise Giroud: Jenny Marx ou a Mulher do Diabo (1996). A partir dessas obras procuramos elucidar uma Jenny que vai além da esposa, da mãe de sete filhos, da “bela prussiana”, mas com toda sua complexidade de uma grande revolucionária e peça fundamental para a elaboração da teoria marxiana, ou seja, com base nessas três linguagens oriundas de locais diferentes e em conjunto com a revisão bibliográfica analisamos as memórias de Jenny Marx enquanto mulher, comunista e intelectual. Encarando que a memória e o discurso estão sempre em disputa, trazemos o debate da historiografia feminina e a invisibilidade das mulheres na história apontando como meio de possibilidade de emergência de novas narrativas a utilização da história oral. Palavras-chave: Jenny Marx; Mulheres; História. Abstract: This article has as objective clarify the potency of resistance and intellectuality of Jenny von Westphalen, setting in debate the woman role in the production of knowledge and their atrophy in a patriarchal society. We resort as methodology the analysis of recent productions and oldest ones like the biography by Mary Gabiel - Love and Capital: Karl and Janny Marx and the Birth of a Revolution(2013), the movie The Young Karl Marx (2017) by Raoul Peck and the biography by Françoise Giroud: Jenny Marx or la femme du diable(1996).

  • An All Too Human Communism
    chapter 5 An All Too Human Communism 1 A Generalised Inversion When Marx left the editorship of the Rheinische Zeitung on 17 March 1843, the fate of the Cologne paper was inexorably sealed. Due to the radical nature of the liberalism that inspired the paper under Marx’s editorship, the Prussian government had for some time already effectively decided upon its suppres- sion. However, officially, it was only a ministerial order of 21 January 1843 that stated that the Rheinische Zeitung would cease publication by 31 March of the same year. This accordingly took place, despite Marx’s efforts to obtain a revoc- ation of the government decision and the petitions submitted by the citizens of Cologne and other Rhineland cities, as well an appeal on the part of the paper’s shareholders to the Prussian sovereign.1 The closure of the Rheinische Zeitung resulted in a determining change in both the public and private spheres of the young intellectual’s life. He was now 25 years old. Weighty issues, both practical and theoretical, loomed on the horizon for him. The previous year, after the death of his brother Hermann,2 difficulties arose with his mother, Henriette, who, wanting to see him take up a secure and advantageous profession, had already refused both any finan- cial assistance and access to his paternal inheritance. On the other hand, his engagement to Jenny von Westphalen had existed since the autumn of 1836 1 During the discussion on this of the General Meeting of the Shareholders of the Rheinische Zeitung, Jung, one of the directors, declared that ‘the newspaper has prospered in its present form, it has gained a surprising number of readers with astonishing rapidity’ (mecw 1, p.

All rights reserved 0191-6599/94 $7.00+ 0.00 MARX, ENGELS, AND THE ABOLITION OF THE FAMILY - RICHARD WEIKART* 'It is a peculiar fact' stated Engels a few months after Marx died, 'that with every great revolutionary movement the question of 'free love' comes to the foreground'.' By the mid- to late-nineteenth century it was clear to advocates and opponents alike that many socialists shared a propensity to reject the institution of the family in favour of 'free love', if not in practice, at least as an ideal. The Prussian and German Reich governments tried to muzzle the socialist threat to the family by drafting legislation in 1849,1874,1876 and 1894, outlawing, among other things, assaults on the family.2 However, the Anti-Socialist Law that Bismarck managed to pass in 1878 contained no mention of the family. The Utopian Socialists Charles Fourier and Robert Owen had preceded Marx and Engels in their rejection of traditional family relationships, and many nineteenth-century leftists followed their cue. The most famous political leader of the German socialists, August Bebel—though he was a staunch Marxist— wrote his immensely popular book, Die Frau und der Sozialismus, under the influence of Fourier's ideas. However, not all socialists in the nineteenth century were anti-family. Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, who wielded great influence in French socialist and anarchist circles, wanted to retain the family institution, which he loved and revered.

It has been performed multiple times, the latest of which is on the occasion of International Women’s Day on March 8, 2018 in Trier, Germany. Along with presenting research on Helena Demuth as a historical person, this article will examine how Helena Demuth, as a historical and literary figure, can be said to embody a dynamic between exitus and new beginnings, changes and interferences. The article also examines how the figure of the Continuum, with the four dimensions physical (body), psychological (emotion), social (behavior), and sexual (desire), can be used to illuminate the person of Helena Demuth in all her facets, not the least of which are her connections to Jenny and Karl Marx. Keywords: gender relations, female figures, Helena Demuth, breaking points, Continuum Biographical Turning Point A look at the numerous publications on the occasion of Karl Marx’s 200th birthday on May 8, 2018 reveals a change of the discourses around Karl Marx, which can be understood as a biographical turning point and which, in connection with new insights into the historical context of Karl Marx’s life and work, changes the classification of its impact.

  • Know the Truth and the Truth Shall Set You Free
    know the truth and the truth shall set you free How little we know of the scale of eternity. How dare we challenge the might and enormity of such wisdom and creation. A million worlds could exist in the heavens... beyond our site. Each with living beings, looking at the sky in wonder at the never ending universe. They may also think that no other intelligence exists... apart from themselves. But perhaps they do not share the arrogance of the human race. Perhaps they possess the intelligence to realize that all things are possible in the vastness of forever... Is it conceivable, that this earth of ours, which is but a speck of dust against the scale of reality, is not only being visited by other life forms but is being controlled by them. Let us not be blinded by our arrogance as to what is possible and what is not. Because we are children at the dawn of our creation with the universe as our classroom and intelligence beyond our imagination waiting to be tapped... when we are ready to receive it. Seek and the wonders you will see will reveal the true qualities of your universe. To the truth of your origins your hearts will go out. The beauty of your origins will surpass your belief and comprehension. And the infinite depth of your cosmic reality will remain part of your heritage in the mists of forever. The peace of understanding, is the beauty of creation. The word has been spoken and the spirit within you knows that home is eternity and existence is immortal..

C .2 KARL MARX, I 8 I 8-1883 A Drawing from Life First published in any language in 1936 FOREWORD STRIFE has raged about Karl Marx fo r decades, and never has it been so embittered as at the present day. He has impressed his image on the time as no other man has done. To some he is a fiend, the arch-enemy of human civilisation, and the prince of chaos, while to others he is a far-seeing and beloved leader, guiding the human race towards a brighter fu ture. In Russia his teachings are the official doctrines of the state, while Fascist countries wish them exterminated.
