About him as a person, his historical conditions, his life, his loved ones. Does anyone have any favorite biographies or even just passages from primary or secondary sources? Alternatively, if anyone has the time, what do you think is most important or interesting to understand about Karl Marx as a person, or perhaps about the historical context he lived in?
It wasn’t, but Marx was very poor, partially because he couldn’t write consistently for long periods and instead did so in short, manic bursts.
Hard to say now but he may have had ADHD or something similar.
