There are free libraries for all, and a very handsome museum has been opened within the last few years, containing some fine modern French pictures, all gifts of the Dollfrees, Engels, and Koechlins, to their native town. The museum, like everything else at Mulhouse, is as French as French can be, no German element visible anywhere.
Engels' attack upon the philosophy of Duehring is based upon dislike of its idealism, the fundamental thesis upon which the work depends being entirely speculative.
And that night, after the long session of the congress, when he took me away with Engels and a few other friends I remember that Karl Pfander was one he could speak of little else: the workers must be united somehow, and whoever proposed further divisions instead of unity must be treated as a traitor. "Some there were who had not his patience.
The taunt as to his all-comprehensiveness of intellect, with which Engels pursues him somewhat too closely and much too bitterly, could not have affected Herr Duehring very greatly. He had his own convictions with respect to that comprehensive intellect of his and few will be found to deny that he had the courage of his convictions.
Engels' many-sidedness was united with a fundamental thoroughness which in these days of specialization is only found in a few cases and was rare even at that time. * It is to the superficial many-sidedness of Dühring that we owe the fact, that the 'Anti-Dühring' became a book which treated the whole of modern science from the Marx-Engels materialistic point of view.
Engels did not consider that such developments were necessarily in the direction of Socialism any more than the nationalization of the railways by the Czar or the Prussian government. On the contrary, he suggested that it meant the strengthening of the capitalism.
Lensch has only one step more to take, and he will certainly gain the highest German order pour le mérite. The famous Communist manifesto of Marx and Engels concludes with the words: "Proletarians of all lands, unite!" It is much to be desired that Dr.
As Engels says elsewhere, when the proletariat seizes the power of the State ``it puts an end to all differences of class and antagonisms of class, and consequently also puts an end to the State as a State. Thus, although State Socialism might, in fact, be the outcome of the proposals of Marx and Engels, they cannot themselves be accused of any glorification of the State.
In his "Origin of the Family," Engels says: "The supremacy of man in marriage is simply the consequence of his economic superiority and will fall with the abolition of the latter." In a large per cent of the American homes, man no longer possesses any economic superiority.
But this waiting for the development of the inevitable is weary work to those who want to realise forthwith, so they, unable to confound the logic of Engels, attack the "abstractions" on which his theory is founded. They still oppose their "eternal truths" to the dialectic.
