    Karl Marx Who is he?

Karl Heinrich Marx was a German philosopher, economist, journalist and SOCIOLOGIST. He was born in the city of Trier, Germany. After graduate the high school, he entered University of Bonn and Humboldt University of Berlin, In the university he studied about History and Philosophy. After graduate the university he worked as newspaper editor. After discontinuous of newspaper he went to France and became a revolutionist. But in 1848 the revolution was failed and he came to Britain as an exile. And he died in 1883.

That is the Karl Marx's life. Then why is he so famous? That is because of his books Communist Manifesto(1848) and The Capital(1859). These books are used nowadays at the university lecture. And his study is used at the school sociology class. When we are a high school student we studied about several sociology classes (ex. Economy, Ethics and Thought and so on). In these classes we can hear the his name easily. When I was a high school student, I studied about Ethics and Thought and in this study's textbook his name is written. So I know about his study a little.

As you can see, Karl Marx is very important man for we that study about sociology. So, although his study is a little difficult, If we know about him and his study, we will get some advantage.
