Excerpt from The Evolution of Property From Savagery to Civilization
The work of Paul Lafargue on the Evolution of Property was originally published as a series of articles, under the nom de plume of "Fergus," in the Nouvelle Revue of Paris, edited by Madame Adam. The originality of the theory advanced, and the mass of facts quoted, were noted not only in France but in England. The Daily News and the Daily Telegraph, notably, called attention to the chapter on Primitive Communism - a chapter written in answer to Professor Huxley"s attack on Rousseau and Human Equality.
The Socialdemokratische Bibliothek, Hottingen, Zurich (a series of volumes issued by the German Socialist Party), has already published a translation of the work, and as soon as the more complete English edition is out it will be used as the basis of Italian and Polish translations.
