Terra Incognita

Seems too collectivist to be NiTe or gamma in general, not Fi PolR so not SeTi, too low Te for SiTe, so that seems to be leaving TiSe and SiFe. Worked so closely with and was too influenced by Engels it seems better to scrutinize earlier materials, so...

his poems

his letter to his father

In this photo, he looks very much like an Ni role and FI demo-heavy SiFe.


Most photos we have he was older.

This is also said to be him when young in a few places so far but haven't found verification yet.

In google search for /karl marx young/ there is an identical drawing from a different angle to the one above. The one above is also on the cover of a compilation 'Jeune Karl Marx' but again, still looking for attribution.

Preface to the French Edition (Marx, 1872)

To the citizen Maurice Lachâtre
Dear Citizen,
I applaud your idea of publishing the translation of “Das Kapital” as a serial. In this form the book will be more accessible to the working class, a consideration which to me outweighs
everything else.
That is the good side of your suggestion, but here is the reverse of the medal: the method of analysis which I have employed, and which had not previously been applied to economic
subjects, makes the reading of the first chapters rather arduous, and it is to be feared that the French public, always impatient to come to a conclusion, eager to know the connexion between
general principles and the immediate questions that have aroused their passions, may be disheartened because they will be unable to move on at once.
That is a disadvantage I am powerless to overcome, unless it be by forewarning and forearming those readers who zealously seek the truth. There is no royal road to science, and only those who do not dread the fatiguing climb of its steep paths have a chance of gaining its luminous summits.
Believe me,
dear citizen,
Your devoted,
Karl Marx
London
March 18, 1872

From the letter to his father:

"From the idealism, which by the way, I had compared and nourished with the Kantian and Fichtean, I arrived at the point of seeking the idea in actuality itself. If the gods had earlier dwelt over the earth, so they were now made into its center."

What if the whole 'political economy' project was Se seeking?

EDIT: nah, probably too lofty and heavy-handed for Ni frame.
