Review

“It is welcome news that this classic will once more be available. Steven Marcus seeks to demonstrate that literary criticism can be of help in understanding history and society. He uses a specific famous and important work, that of Engels, to do this. He admirably succeeds in showing how close reading of texts, located in time and space, adds indispensably to the analyses of historians and social scientists.”
