Hypothetical Later Volumes of 'Capital' tomboy theory 05-02-23 21:19:03 No.12354

so marx meant to write 6 volumes of capital but never finished, i'm interested in what the later volumes would have said. so is grundrisse a sort of summary of what all 6 volumes? if not what would be

That was his plan around the time of writing Grundrisse. He later compacted it to a 4 volume plan, with planned bits for each of the volumes in the original plan being combined into each other or getting dropped entirely because there was no point in Marx writing about it. The first volume from this final plan was published during his lifetime. The manuscripts for the 2nd and 3rd volumes were edited by Engels after Marx's death and published. After Engels' death, all of the manuscripts and notebooks were inherited by the Second International, and Karl Kautsky working for them prepared and edited and published the research notes and manuscripts for the final volume in a 3-volume series as Theories of Surplus-Value [Theorien über den Mehrwert].

wait when did he want to compacted it into a 4 volume plan, this is the first time i'm hearing about it? so does that mean Theories of Surplus-Value is sort of the final (if you want to think of it that way). also what is grundrisse anyway?

>The Grundrisse der Kritik der Politischen Ökonomie (Foundations of a Critique of Political Economy)[1] is an unfinished manuscript by the German philosopher Karl Marx. The series of seven notebooks was rough-drafted by Marx, chiefly for purposes of self-clarification, during the winter of 1857–8. Left aside by Marx in 1858, it remained unpublished until 1939.[2]

I just want to reach the shortest versions and the chapters that basically cover it all.
