About this Event
Engels has been valued in so many ways, as a theoretician in his own right as well as having been Marx’s co-author and editor. His contributions to political education have been far less recognised. This lecture will argue that Engels does indeed have much contribute here too, though, making Marx’s writings accessible and relevant for wider audiences. ‘Socialism: Utopian and Scientific is a classic example’. But this isn’t all. Engels’ writings have also been trail blazing in terms of developing Marxist understandings of language, cultures and changing consciousness, understandings which have underpinned subsequent understandings of the development of class consciousness.
