Shedding light on one of the most remarkable and original figures among German Marxist thinkers, this volume presents a selection of engaging writings by Rosa Luxemburg. Revealing how Luxemburg was one of the earliest victims of fascism and was murdered in Berlin in 1919 for her beliefs, this compilation includes rare pieces previously unavailable in English. Annotated and placed in context, these writings illustrate Luxemburg’s aversion to splits in the Labor movement–particularly in Germany and Russia–and examine her thinking about culture, nationalism, and women’s rights. Reviews and documentation on the history of the Left are also included.
