Eleanor Marx : A Life by Rachel Holmes (review @ The Guardian)
▻http://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/may/16/eleanor-marx-rachel-holmes-review
Karl may have provided the theory for social revolution, but it was Eleanor who took it out into the world and tried to make it work. She was a tireless campaigner, founding three trade unions and the Socialist League. [most importantly], Eleanor Marx wrested feminism away from its narrow, bourgeois suffrage and property-rights agenda and insisted on trying to make it a properly socialist enterprise.
Je suis juste au début du bouquin, mais c’est bien chouette ; @reka devrait aimer la description de la fille de Marx foutant le bordel dans son bureau pendant qu’il écrivait Das Kapital dans un appartement crasseux de Londres…
[EDIT :] j’ai fini la lecture, je vous le recommande chaudement
