Avec ce volume de lettres inédites, les Éditions sociales reprennent la publication de la correspondance de Karl Marx et Friedrich Engels, un des derniers grands éléments du corpus marxien à ne pas avoir été traduit en français. Dans ces lettres, qui couvrent les années 1875-1880, on (re)découvre Marx et Engels au quotidien. Mais si la vie privée et les événements familiaux ont leur part, c'est bien la politique qui occupe la première place.Après le séisme de la Commune et la dissolution de la Première Internationale, une nouvelle séquence s'est ouverte : celle de la construction des grands partis ouvriers nationaux dans une Europe en ébullition. Marx et Engels observent et accompagnent ce processus, avec espoir, mais sans jamais se départir de leur sagacité, sans renoncer à juger, voire, quand cela leur semble nécessaire, à engager le combat.Débats et rivalités internes, problèmes d'organisation, controverses théoriques, mouvements sociaux, bouleversements géopolitiques : tout les intéresse, et tout passe au tamis de leur esprit critique.

Marx, Karl, - 1818-1883 --- Engels, Friedrich, - 1820-1895

Reading different or controversial intentions into Marx and Engels’ works has been a common but somewhat unquestioned practice in the history of Marxist scholarship. Engels’ Dialectics of Nature, a torso for some and a great book for others, is a case in point. The entire Engels debate separates into two opposite views: Engels the contaminator of Marx’s “new materialism” vs. Engels the self-educated genius of dialectical materialism. What Engels, unlike Marx, has not enjoyed so far is a critical reading that considers the relationship between different layers of this standard text: authorial, textual, editorial, and interpretational. Informed by a historical hermeneutic, this book questions the elements that structure the debate on the Dialectics of Nature. It analyzes different political and philosophical functions attached to Engels’ text, and relocates the meaning of the term “dialectics” into a more precise context. Arguing that Engels’ dialectics is less complete than we usually think it is but that he achieved more than most scholars would like to admit, this book fully documents and critically analyzes Engels’ intentions and concerns in the Dialectics of Nature, the process of writing, and its reception and edition history in order to reconstruct the solved and unsolved philosophical problems in this unfinished work.
