I have read plenty of obscure ones that I had to add to the data base myself.

I read mostly pirated books.

Is it alright?

I just pick a fitting book there.

@Tenta How many books did you read in total?

No idea, I was an avid reader in childhood.

Probably a few thousands in total.

I liked detectives in childhood and Sci-fi

I think people like you have to be forced to donate sperm and procreate in millions for the socialist motherland.

Did you read Hegel already?

I read lots of history and historical politics books in my childhood.

What Marxist literature have you read?

Not yet.

I’m not sure what counts as Marxist literature.

Capital would count

I read some Marx, some Lenin, political East German stuff. I even read the school textbook teaching Dialectal Materialism to 12th graders.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17447189-einf-hrung-in-den-dialektischen-und-historischen-materialismus I even possess it. 😃 It’s one of the books I had to add by myself.

@Tenta Best practice is to study philosophy from its roots, switch to Hegel, then switch to Marx-Engels. But nobody does it because its a long way.

But its the best way

Introduction to the dialectal and the historical materialism.

You're so lucky you can read original Hegel and Marx

usually introductions to diamat are not so nice as the original. It is a huge downgrade from original. Lenin advised to study original Hegel.

Most materials are revised or not complete

It’s a good starter, and was taught over an entire school year. 552 pages should be a good giveaway that it does contain a lot. Of course it is adapted to East Germany and the Socialist World in the early 1970s.

By the way, did you listen to that FDJ song I had linked some time ago?

@Tenta ☣#4733 yes, I was surprised there is still people in this organization. Very much fun. I miss the old times.
