The "Communist Manifesto" by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels was published in February 1848, on the occasion of the Communist League conference in London.

Besides being the programmatic text of an international revolutionary organization that was then taking shape, the Communist Manifesto was - and largely remains - one of the most insightful and penetrating analyses of 19th-century capitalist society.

An emblematic, widely-read text that has influenced world literature's history like few others, the "Communist Manifesto" has been inextricably linked with the aspirations of millions of people who sought in its lines the promise of a better world.

This new edition, in a fresh translation, is enriched with the impressive illustrations of Fernando Vicente.
