The Eighteen Brumaire Of Louis Bonaparte
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
In English. Translated from the German by Eden and Cedar Paul. Marx's famous book, 'Der Achtzehnte Brumaire des Louis Bonaparte' was first published in the United States in 1852. The Eighteenth Brumaire focuses on the 1851 French coup d'etat, by which Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, president of the Second Republic and Napoleon Bonaparte's nephew, became emperor of the Second French Empire as Napoleon III. It seeks to explain how capitalism and class struggle created conditions which enabled "a grotesque and mediocre personality to play a hero's part". Marx describes the divisions and alliances among the bourgeoisie, the petty bourgeoisie, the peasantry, revolutionaries, and social democrats, among other groups, and how a lack of dominance of any one led to the re-emergence of monarchy, despite the Revolution of 1848. Used: printed thick paper front cover is lost, back cover intact has loss to the top. The spine paper is well worn from handling, the title is half there readable. Inked name on inside page.
