"Neumanns/ in Freundschaft, Erinnerung,/ und in der Hoffnung auf/ weiteres Zusammensein/ Herbert Marcuse/ May 1, 1941.
First Edition of "Reason and Revolution": first major work in English, an introduction to the dialectical thinking of Hegel and Marx.
It is of the very definition of any "classic" work that it not only introduce a new depth and direction of thought, but that its original insights endure. Such is the case with Herbert Marcuse's Reason and Revolution. When this study first appeared in 1941, it was acclaimed for its profound and undistorted reading of Hegel's social and political theory, the appreciation of Marcuse's work has remained undiminished, and indeed it is today more relevant than ever before.

Herbert Marcuse (was born in Berlin on 19th July 1898 as son of a jewish textile factory owner from Pommern - died on 29th July 1979 during a visit to Starnberg/Germany)
Marcuse emerged as philosopher and scholar within Weimar Germany. After participating in the attempted Social Democratic revolution in Berlin in 1917 and becoming familiar with the works of Marx he went to study with Heidegger at Freiburg University in 1928. Marcuse's hopes for a radical new beginning for philosophy (and a synthesis between existentialism and Marxism) led him back to Hegel. In 1932 he published a major study of Hegel and in 1933 he published the first major review of rediscovered Marx's 1844 Manuscripts. With Theodore Adorno and Max Horkheimer he founded the Frankfurt Institute of Social Research. A special target of the Nazis because of his Jewish origins and Marxist politics, he emigrated (1934) to the United States where he lived for the rest of his life. and became a naturalized citizen in 1940. Marcuse served with the Office of Strategic Services during World War II and later taught at Harvard, Columbia, and Brandeis before becoming (1965) professor of philosophy at the Univ. of California at San Diego.
He is best known for his attempt to synthesize Marxian and Freudian theories into a comprehensive critique of modern industrial society. In One Dimensional Man (1964), his most popular book, he argued for a sexual basis to the social and political repression in contemporary America; the book made him a hero of New Left radicals and provided a rationale for the student revolts of the 1960s in the United States and Europe. His other works include Reason and Revolution (1941), Eros and Civilization (1955), An Essay on Liberation (1969), and Counterrevolution and Revolt (1972).
Reason and Revolution (1941) provided a study of the genesis of Hegel's thought and drew Hegel and Marx closer together as social philosophers responding to revolutionary possibilities (and social movements) in the society of their time. Marcuse's thinking was closely related to the hegelian Marxism - or "Critical Theory" - developed by the members of the Frankfurt School (The Institute for Social Research) under the guidance of HORKHEIMER and ADORNO.
Franz Leopold Neumann, born into an assimilated German-Jewish family in Kattowitz (a city near Krakow which became Polish in 1921), at Breslau, Leipzig, Rostock and Frankfurt am Main, Neumann acquired a legal training which he put into practice during the Weimar Republic, working as a labor lawyer affiliated with the Social Democratic Party. He was arrested by the Nazis in April of 1933, and after a month of incarceration, escaped to England. At the London School of Economics he studied under Harold Laski and was granted a doctorate in Political Science. At Laski's recommendation Neumann joined the Frankfurt Institute of Social Research in 1936. His presence at the Institute enhanced the critical-theoretical analysis of fascism and German National Socialism. His most significant work, Behemoth: The Structure and Practice of National Socialism 1933-1944 remains a classic in the field. In 1941, Neumann was recruited to the U.S. Board of Economic Warfare by William J. Donovan, and in July of 1942 he became the chief economist of the Intelligence Division at the Office of the U.S. Chief of Staff. In 1943 Neumann was transferred to the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), where he became deputy chief of the Central European Section [Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, Cambridge, Mass., MIT Press, 1994, 300-301]. In the summer of 1945, Neumann travelled to Nuremberg, where he was to become the first chief of research of the International War Crimes Tribunal. He died in 1954.
