Karl Marx

German philosopher Karl Marx is well-known for his political, economic, and philosophical ideas. From 1836 to 1860, he was active as a critic of the political system.

He is well known for writing The Communist Manifesto in 1846, which has been studied for generations all across the world. Marxism, as it is now known, was his belief that the working class might unite and overcome the capitalist system to establish a world where there were no classes.

Jack London

Prior to beginning his writing career, Jack London, who was born into poverty, tried his luck at gold mining. Since the majority of people hadn’t read science fiction previously, his writing style was novel for the period.

The Call of the Wild (1903), White Fang (1906), The Sea Wolf (1904), and many other of his books were huge bestsellers. Being an outspoken socialist and a part of the radical literary collective “The Crowd” in San Francisco, his personal life was not without controversy.
