The Communist Manifesto (or Manifesto of the Communist Party) changed the face of the twentieth century beyond recognition, inspiring millions to revolution, forming the basis of political systems that still dominate countless lives and continuing to ignite violent debate about class and capitalism today.

About the Authors

Karl Marx was born in Trier, Germany and studied law at Bonn and Berlin. In 1848, with Freidrich Engels, he finalized The Communist Manifesto. He settled in London, where he studied economics and wrote the first volume of his major work, Das Kapital (1867, two further volumes were posthumously added in 1884 and 1894). He died in 1883 as a stateless person and is buried in Highgate Cemetery, London.

Friedrich Engels was born in Barmen, Germany. From 1842 he lived mostly in England, working at and later running a textile mill. He co-wrote many of Marx's works and supported Marx financially during the writing of Das Kapital. After Marx's death, Engels continued editing Captial and publishing his own works, including The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State, before his death in 1895. His ashes were scattered off Beachy Head according to his wishes.
