Hello, I was looking for any of Marx or Engels works regarding their philosophical positions, mainly materialism vs idealism, dialectical materialism, and ethics. I am new to Marx and wanted to learn more about how he is juxtaposed to previous thinkers like Descartes and Hegel. I understand that a lot of his work is intertwined in that it might not be helpful to distinguish between his philosophies and other areas of his work, but if there are any works that focus mainly on what I described I would greatly appreciate it!

Looking for anything, I know about Christopher hills history 17th century England but heard it was relatively ideological so I would like to read a more nuanced telling before I delve into that.
