>Marx: complete works

A completely unreasonable expectation. Not even Ph.D specialists on Marx do this. Just specify the volumes of Capital and the short important texts.

"65 volumes of MEGA have been published... The entire project is expected to be 114 volumes total."

yawn. This is the reading list of someone who is probably quite well-informed when it comes to philosophy but has shit-tier tastes in poetry or fiction.

>> No.13593330

>>13591641
There needs to be more of the writings of the Fathers of the Church, mystical and spiritual writings of the saints, and a bit more theology. Also most of the Old Testament should be included, though a few of the prophets and some chapters of the Pentateuch can be safely ignored.
