SHORTLISTED FOR THE ELIZABETH LONGFORD PRIZE FOR HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY 2017 `A deeply original & illuminating account of Marx`s journey through the intellectual history of the nineteenth century...a profound reappraisal & a gripping read` Christopher Clark, author of The Sleepwalkers As the nineteenth century unfolded, its inhabitants had to come to terms with an unparalleled range of political, economic, religious & intellectual challenges. Distances shrank, new towns sprang up, & ingenious inventions transformed the industrial landscape. It was an era dominated by new ideas about God, human capacities, industry, revolution, empires & political systems
- & above all, the shape of the future. One of the most distinctive & arresting contributions to this debate was made by Karl Marx, the son of a Jewish convert in the Rhineland & a man whose entire life was devoted to making sense of the hopes & fears of the nineteenth century world. Gareth Stedman Jones`s impressive biography explores how Marx came to his revolutionary ideas in an age of intellectual ferment, & the impact they had on his times. In a world where so many things were changing so fast, would the coming age belong to those enthralled by the events which had brought this world into being, or to those who feared & loathed it? This remarkable book allows the reader to understand as never before the world of ideas which shaped Marx`s world
- & in turn made Marx shape our own.
