| Why it’s on the list | Isaiah Berlin’s intellectual biography of Marx, written in his twenties and first published in 1939 — the book that made his reputation. It reconstructs Marx’s thought in its Hegelian and Young Hegelian context and treats him as a serious systematic thinker, while being unsparing about the temperament. |
