Dialectics of Nature

“Dialektik der Natur(Dialectics of Nature)” （by Engels/2000:Latest translated version/Shinnihon shuppansya)

Engels, like Marx, emphasized the importance of materialism and dialectics.
Materialism and dialectics existed in the past, but Marx and Engels pointed out the weaknesses of past philosophers and made their theories stronger.

At the beginning of this book, Engels emphasized the importance of matter and nature. He explained the birth of the universe, the origin of matter, the solar system, the earth, nature, and the birth of living things. Everything is connected by one law: matter.

Nature is not a fixed entity, but undergoes birth, change, and extinction. This is connected to the dialectics of Marx and Engels.

What is interesting about this book is that Engels denies such things as psychic phenomena, ghost photographs, and occult phenomena, and spends many pages emphasizing that they do not exist scientifically.

Marx and Engels criticized religion and claimed that ''God'' did not exist scientifically.
Unfortunately, this is one of the reasons why they are hated in modern society.

However, in a conversation with Gaspar Noe (mentioned above), Harada said, ''I understand the feelings of people who are devoted to God and religion''.

As a child, Harada was brainwashed by Japan's contradictory religious practices (Buddhism and Shintoism, which has its origins in fantasy), but after meeting Marx and Engels, he stopped getting involved in religion and became freer. He was able to make time.

The latest edition features extensive annotations and explanations of posthumous manuscripts.
