This event introduces the first new English translation of Marx’s ‘Capital’ in fifty years. Reitter will explain how the new rendering reflects the circumstances of its production and how it differs from the earlier efforts, comparing, for example, what the different translations  do with Marx’s conceptual language and some of the key literary features of his text.

Prof. Paul Reitter, translator and recipient of this year's Helen and Kurt Wolff Prize. in conversation with Dean Whiteside/ Goethe-Institut New York.
