The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte" is one of Karl Marx' most profound and most brilliant monographs. It may be considered the best work extant on the philosophy of history with an eye especially upon the history of the Movement of the Proletariat together with the bourgeois and other manifestations that accompany the same and the tactics that such conditions dictate. (Excerpt from Preface)

1.0 out of 5 stars
Almost unreadable translation,
By eireann (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte (Paperback)
This translation of Marx's _18th Brumaire_ is practically unreadable. Not only is the prose confusing, even nonsensical, but there are grammatical and spelling errors throughout. The translation is from 1897, and the book is inexpensive because this translation is in the public domain. Be aware that several other publishers are printing this translation with fancy covers but the interior contents unaltered. There is another translation that is much more readable; I'm not sure of the publisher, but it has an orange cover with white letters and an image of Daumier's sculpture "Ratapoil".
