Kate Evans Bücher

Seit ihrer Jugend war Rosa Luxemburg davon überzeugt, daß sich die Welt verändern muß. Schon in jungen Jahren kämpfte sie für die Rechte der Arbeiterschaft und die Idee des Sozialismus. Rosa Luxemburg war Jüdin, sehr gebildet, besaß einen scharfen Verstand und ein mitreißendes Temperament. Sie war eine großartige Rednerin und brillante Schriftstellerin. Konflikte scheute sie nicht. Sie kämpfte auf der Straße und ließ sich nicht einschüchtern,nicht von den Freikorps, nicht von der Polizei, auch von Morddrohungen und Gefängnisaufenthalten nicht. Die Graphic Novel "Rosa" von Kate Evans zeigt Rosa Luxemburgs intellektuelle Welt und setzt ihre Ideen in den Kontext einer bewegenden Lebensgeschichte.

An “utterly brilliant” graphic novel biography of the dramatic life and death of German revolutionary Rosa Luxemburg (Guardian). “ . . . a tour de force . . . a straightforward and intellectually honest introduction to [Luxumburg’s] politics and theoretical contributions.” —Los Angeles Review of Books A giant of the political left, Rosa Luxemburg is one of the foremost minds in the canon of revolutionary socialist thought. But she was much more than just a thinker. She made herself heard in a world inimical to the voices of strong-willed women. She overcame physical infirmity and the prejudice she faced as a Jew to become an active revolutionary whose philosophy enriched every corner of an incredibly productive and creative life—her many friendships, her sexual intimacies, and her love of science, nature and art. Always opposed to World War I, when others on the German left were swept up on a tide of nationalism, she was imprisoned and murdered in 1919 fighting for a revolution she knew to be doomed. In this beautifully drawn work of graphic biography, writer and artist Kate Evans has opened up her subject’s intellectual world to a new audience, grounding Luxemburg’s ideas in the realities of an inspirational and deeply affecting life.
