About

This site collects various summarise, notes, comments, reading aids etc. on Capital by Karl Marx. Page numbers refer to the Penguin Classics editions. The notation “X:Y” means the Y-th full paragraph from page X. This implies that the quote might be on a page with number larger than X if a paragraph spans more than a page.

These notes are far from complete, especially Volume 2 and 3 are very sparse at the moment. New material is added when it is ready.

Critique, correction and contributions are very welcome.
