Friedrich Engels (1820 - 1895) was a German philosopher, social and political theorist, journalist, businessman, and revolutionary socialist. However, his main claim to fame was his lifelong association with and support of Karl Marx with whom he co-authored The Communist Manifesto (1848) and developed the political and philosophical system that came to be known as Marxism. After Marx's death, Engels served as the editor of his works, completing the second and third volumes of Das Kapital.
