Engels Family

The Engels Family refers primarily to the influential family of Friedrich Engels, a German philosopher and social scientist who co-authored "The Communist Manifesto" with Karl Marx. Engels came from a wealthy textile manufacturing family, which provided him with a strong economic foundation. His writings on socialism, labor, and class struggle were shaped by his experiences in the industrial working-class environment. The Engels family symbolizes the intersection of capitalist enterprise and revolutionary thought, highlighting the social conditions that prompted discussions around socialism and workers' rights during the 19th century.
