London in Karl Marx’s day …
First things first – the readers would like to know who this character Marx was!!
Karl Marx
Hmm… well … not exactly …
Charles Marx (‘Karl’ as he’s called in German) was a Jewish-German Philosopher who lived and struggled from 1818 to 1883. Everywhere in the world he’s blamed for having invented
Based on his writings and ideas, one third of humanity practices communism, while the other two thirds keep arguing about them …
Anywhere you go, words like Bolshevik, Marxist, Socialism, Leninism, Red, Fidelists, Maoist, Materialist, communist and so on rub lots of people up the wrong way…
Actually, Marxism today divides the world into two camps: those who hate him and those who place all their hopes in him…
Because Charlie Marx is just like the Bible or the Koran: many quote him, but very few know him, and even fewer understand him… (or better… make him out…)
Marx has something to say to everybody: there’s not a major change in the last hundred years which doesn’t owe something to comrade Charlie’s Influence…
Economy, Literature, Space, Travel, The Arts, History, Human Relations, The Vatican, The Unions, Revolutions, Social Changes, Education, Medicine, Industry, Agriculture, Journalism… everywhere you’ll find a hair or two of Charlie’s!!
Knowledge – and practise – of his ideas now makes possible what was impossible for twenty centuries: freedom from the exploitation of man by man…
In short: If in every sense we’re better off today, we owe that to Marx especially…
(Social Security, Pensions, Paid Holidays, Unions, Scholarships, and many other Victories are indirectly due to Marx!)
All revolutions, even those which claim to be spontaneous and without “putative” fathers, have a Marxist Origin…
Worker Priests are accused of being Marxists, South American Generals talk about him. He’s studied in Jesuit Schools. Others have fled Cuba when it declared itself the first Marxist country in Latin America… but still you hear it said there’s no interest in Marx…
His father was a well-to-do lawyer, which allowed the young Marx to study what was in fashion then:
LAW.
Briefly: Marx went to Bonn University to study Law. But he worked harder at raising hell ANC (so his teachers say) pursuing wine, women and song… to such a point that he ended up fighting a duel for a lady’s favours, which earned him a wound on the Eyebrow! You can’t really say that he kept his nose to the Grindstone…
From Bonn he went to Berlin where he finished his studies. Then he returned to Bonn to try teaching, but his bad name didn’t open any doors: in Berlin he’d turned Atheist AND subversive…
That was too much! His society Barely tolerated artists, so just imagine what they made of Subversives!!!
It is important at this point to clear up a detail about Marx’s life: although his origins were Jewish, he didn’t consider himself Jewish, or ever practise that Religion. His father had become a Lutheran and Marx himself was one, but only in his youth…
The University of Berlin was in a terrific Turmoil of new ideas. Religious explanations of man and the universe had been challenged and thinkers were looking round for other answers to the eternal questions of mankind …
The young Marx didn’t ask himself “what to do?” in the sense of “how can I earn a living?” But “w...
