Autorenporträt

Friedrich Engels, born on November 28, 1820, in Barmen, Prussia, was the eldest son of a wealthy textile manufacturer. Despite his family's expectations for him to pursue a business career, Engels developed a keen interest in philosophy and literature during his early years. His exposure to the harsh realities of industrialization, particularly during his time in Manchester, England, profoundly influenced his socio-economic perspectives.In 1844, Engels met Karl Marx in Paris, marking the beginning of a lifelong partnership. Together, they co-authored several significant works, including "The Holy Family" and "The German Ideology," culminating in "The Communist Manifesto" in 1848. Engels also provided financial support to Marx, enabling him to continue his research and writing.After Marx's death in 1883, Engels dedicated himself to editing and publishing the remaining volumes of "Das Kapital," ensuring the continuation of their joint intellectual legacy. He also authored works such as "The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State," further contributing to socialist theory. Engels passed away on August 5, 1895, in London, leaving an indelible mark on political thought and revolutionary movements worldwide.
