Spartacus's Daughter - The Life and Struggles of Rosa Luxemburg
A personal take on the life of Polish Marxist, philosopher, economist, anti-war activist and revolutionary socialist Rosa Luxemburg. Although it will reflect on the events of her life in light of the historical context and political climate, this podcast doesn't pretend to be an academic work on the life of Rosa Luxemburg. Telling stories of her life and times, with excerpts from letters to her friends, lovers and fellow social-democrats is the real aim here. Over a century after her assassination, her words are still relevant. The music for the podcast was composed by Fraser Parry.

Rosa is in Paris to supervise the printing of issues of Sprawa Robotnicza, the newspaper she and Leo have founded. Leo is in Zurich, telling her what to do, what's wrong with her work, and she's rebelling against his attitude.
