He lived in '95 - almost a century. I could tell this century as much as anyone else. October 1, 2012 after a long illness went away Eric John Ernest Hobsbaum - British historian number 1, one of the most interesting contemporary Marxist authors, adolescence by laurence steinberg author adolescence by laurence steinberg of a number of excellent books on various subjects. The great merit Hobsbauma Eric and his associates that they were interested primarily in the history of the life of those who are forgotten adolescence by laurence steinberg authors inspirational chronicles the deeds of kings and presidents - the lives of ordinary working people who, in fact, moving the story forward. Hobsbaum, pronisshy throughout his long life of the idea of equality and justice, wrote about the heroes of their research with genuine sympathy for their deeds and dreams, and in this he was like his American counterpart to Howard Zinn - another recently deceased leftist historian

who has devoted themselves "folk history".
Eric Hobsbaum adolescence by laurence steinberg was born in Alexandria, Egypt in the family adolescence by laurence steinberg of a British citizen, the son of Polish

Jew Leopold Percy Obstbauma (name Hobsbaum or Hobsbaum - the result of errors in documents) and Austrian Jewish Nelly Hryun. It's a bit like an early biography other British Marxist historian, brothers Perry and Benedict Anderson, whose childhood also began far beyond Britain. Eric's parents were married in neutral adolescence by laurence steinberg Switzerland, where raging around the First World War, while they were alive, the family lived then in Vienna, in Berlin, but the children spoke English. They lived in poverty - Perry Anderson notes that Eric Hobsbaum was "closer to the proletarian experience than most English intellectuals of his generation."
Eric's father tried unsuccessfully to do business until exhaustion caused adolescence by laurence steinberg by the economic crisis, took his life in 1929, two years later she died of tuberculosis and have Hobsbauma. Eric with his sister Nancy was taken to foster uncle and aunt, but soon their life again changed dramatically - in 1933, when the Nazis came to power, the new family moved to London. Here, Eric has gained a reputation know-all, because most of the time spent sitting in the library with volumes of English poets or founders of Marxism. Realizing his youthful freak, Hobsbaum

leave this merciless to his self-portrait (already mentioned Perry Anderson recalled self-critical tone of his horoscope Johannes Kepler): "E. J. E. Hobsbaum, tall, awkward, ugly, blond 18-year type, with a significant amount of superficial knowledge and original ideas, general adolescence by laurence steinberg and theoretical ...

She loves nature. adolescence by laurence steinberg And forget the German language. "
Hobsbaum remained in England after being named the family moved from Europe to Chile before the outbreak of the Second World War. Adventures are lacking - a student Hobsbaum not only was left activist and columnist for "Grant", but pidpratsovuvav cameraman, so he participated in the shooting in France, Algeria and Tunisia. He planned a clandestine trip to Spain wracked by civil war, where he had not enlisted troops to Republicans. Moreover - it could even become a spy from the circle "Cambridge Five": Philby, Burgess, Maclean adolescence by laurence steinberg and Blunt trained with him at Cambridge, and in his autobiography "Interesting times" Hobsbaum remembers refused hints on these young people's possible participation in some "mission".
Not without sadness Hobsbaum recalled that World he, with all his effort to fight against fascism, had a rather ridiculous: he was appointed first to the Battalion in Singapore, and then proceeded to far from heroic service of general education in Edinburgh (enough that Communist, also from Austria

In 1947 Hobsbaum protects Cambridge thesis on the social reformist Fabian Society (he first took up another adolescence by laurence steinberg topic - the agrarian reform in the North African countries, adolescence by laurence steinberg but then changed his mind), and became a teacher Birkbeck, adolescence by laurence steinberg one of the k
