Digital - How Wine made Karl Marx a Communist

Digital tour on the traces of Karl Marx

Did you know that family Marx owned vineyards, what Karl thought about teetotallers, and how the hardships of the Moselle wine-growers made him care about economical questions for the first time?

"How Wine made Karl Marx a Communist" is about less known facets of Marx's life and works: We get to know the philosopher as a vineyard-owner and as a struggler for the Moselle wine-growers. In addition there will be excurses on his excesses, anecdotes from his everyday life and more severe words on the suffering of the Moselle inhabitants.
