In publishing Marx s Concept of Man in 1961, Erich Fromm presented to the English-speaking world for the first time Karl Marx s then recently discovered Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts. Including the Manuscripts and many other philosophical writings by Marx as well as Fromm s own extended response, many of these writings have since become recognised as important works in their own right. Fromm stresses Marx s humanist philosophy and challenges both contemporary Western ignorance of Marx and Soviet corruptions of his work. Fromm s analysis of Marx s work and his dissemination of these neglected writings by Marx himself fundamentally altered the prevailing discourse about Marxism, revolutionising contemporary thought and providing a formative influence for the development of the New Left.
