A richly illustrated essay from the latter 19th century, written in response to August Bebel's pioneering work on women and socialism.
This book is a biography of Dr Edward Bibbins Aveling (1849-1898). The author first came to her subject by way of Eleanor Marx. She soon discovered that Aveling was a very estimable and significant figure in his own right. He was a leading presence in the British socialist movement in the last two decades of the nineteenth century, where he is found in every turn in the movement's development. And as the Free Love partner of Karl Marx's youngest daughter, Eleanor, he enjoyed billing as the 'son-in-law of Karl Marx'. He also benefited from a close connection with Engels. Yet, oddly, Aveling has found no real place in history; he earns no more than honourable mentions in histories of socialism...
Eleanor Marx Aveling and Edward Aveling Letters from England, 1895, edited and with introductions by Tony Chandler and Stephen Williams, translated from the Russian by Francis King.
