The Communist Manifesto

Posted by Notcot on Apr 29, 2012 in Cult Film
The Communist Manifesto

The Communist Manifesto (1848) Marx and Engels’s revolutionary summons to the working classes is one of the most important and influential political theories ever formulated. After four years of collaboration the authors produced this incisive account of their idea of Communism in which they envisage a society without classes private property or a state. They argue that increasing exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a revolution in which Capitalism is overthrown. This vision provided the theoretical basis of political systems in Russia China Cuba and Eastern Europe affecting the lives of millions. The Communist Manifesto still remains a landmark text: a work that continues to influence and provoke debate on capitalism and class.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Really good value set, 3 Nov 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 19AV713B 19-inch Widescreen LCD TV with Freeview and HD Ready (Electronics)

Having looked at many products in equally as many stores I decided on the 19AV from Amazon. I already have a 37″ Toshiba LCD which I’m totally impressed with so I was confident to go with their current small screen offering.

Typically it arrived quickly using super saver and was in perfect condition.

The TV was simple to set-up and within moments I had access to all the Freeview channels I’d expect. The 720p resolution is perfect for the bedroom and is HD ready should I decide to connect to Sky’s HD channels in future but with standard resolution broadcasts the picture is perfect.

Unlike some of the own brand I’ve seen on the high street I bought this TV as it has 2 HDMI connections to take a bluray player or games console. I did connect my bluray player to test the connections and the picture was excellent as I’d expected.

I liked the USB functionality which I think will be useful if I need to look at pictures off a USB stick in future.

Overall 5/5 from me for this cracking little TV.

This review is from: Toshiba 19AV713B 19-inch Widescreen LCD TV with Freeview and HD Ready (Electronics)

I bought this TV to go in my kitchen. My old set was fine but it had a separate Freeview box which had suddenly decided to start rebooting itself at random times, usually during say the big reveal at the end of an Agatha Christie film (“and the murder was…” Blink!) so I decided to get an all-in-one set, and this one was perfect.

Once the box is opened you’ll find the TV swathed in wrappings and two chunks of polystyrene, a simple but pleasing remote control (with batteries), a power lead, and a thin instruction leaflet. With regard to connectivity the specification outlined on Amazon is accurate, but it doesn’t say that there is also a single scart socket. The controls for the set are on the right-hand edge, and there is an attached base which can be swung into position, locked to prevent movement, or removed to allow wall mounting.

Switch the set on and it enters setup mode. It asks a few simple questions, tunes itself into the Freeview channels, and a couple of minutes later it’s all done. You can press the menu key at any time and retune if desired, and there are a plethora of settings you can fiddle with regarding sound, screen, software updates and so on.

The screen is lovely, providing a crisp, bright image, and the sound is clean and clear, but if you find it a little tinny you can boost the base or alter the treble.

All in all it looks great, works well, and was a bargain at the price. A great set for the kitchen or bedroom.

Great Toshiba TV, 11 Nov 2010
This review is from: Toshiba 19AV713B 19-inch Widescreen LCD TV with Freeview and HD Ready (Electronics)

This TV replaces a 20 year old 14″ panasonic which had given terrific service as our only TV so was anxious about this new one. No need to have been, this Toshiba was a dream to set up with excellent picture and sound. Amazing value for money. Also can’t get used to how little space it takes up compared with the old one which was 15″ deep !!
