About this title: Written in 1833-4, when Marx was barely twenty-five, this astonishingly rich body of works formed the cornerstone for his later political philosophy. In the Critique of Hegel's "Doctrine of the State", he dissects Hegel's thought and develops his own views on civil society, while his Letters reveal a furious intellect struggling to develop the egalitarian theory of state. Equally challenging are his controversial essay, "On the Jewish Question and the Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts", where Marx first made clear his views on alienation, the state, democracy and human nature. ...

"The event, or practice, is not the result of consciousness, or an idea. Consciousness is born out of practice. In order to 'think outside the box' you have to make another box.
"If we assume man to be man, and his relation to the world to be a human one, then love can be exchanged only for love, trust for trust, and so on."
I guess the 1844 Manuscripts were his first attempt to leave German, idealist philosophy behind and focus on political economy. "The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to change it."

"If the problem of Marx's Early Works is really to be posed, the first condition to fulfill is to admit that even philosophers are young men for a time."<--That's Althusser"
