Friedrich Engles Yaşamı ve Düşüncesi

In this comprehensive biography of Friedrich Engels, one of the founders of Marxism, not only his political struggle and intellectual production, but also his relations with Karl Marx, his journalism, his business life, his "special relations" with the Burns brothers, his poetry and even his love of wine are discussed.

Why did Engels, who initially gave priority to "concrete political strategies", focus on discussions of philosophy and method in the last years of his life, and what kind of contribution did he try to make to Marxism with his studies in these fields?

How did Engels get the nickname "General"? Did he try to "simplify" Marx's "difficult" theoretical language and approach during the years when Capital was written? How did the family business and the struggle to make ends meet affect him? Why did the relationship between Engels and Marx, who always worked in harmony after their second meeting in 1844, break down after the death of Mary Burns, and how did it recover?

Terrell Carver's answers, based on an extensive literature review, help us get to know Engels more closely. From a letter from Engels to Marx dated 1845: “To confront real living people directly and thus make them see and hear you is very different from demonically moving your pen to abstract readers whom you see with your 'mind's eye'.”
