Of course, Marx also wrote about spinning and weaving machines, with an occasional response to Babbage. See Chapter 15, “Machinery and Modern Industry,” Capital (1976, 405-556) and “Division of Labour and Mechanical Workshop. Tool and Machinery” in Collected Works, Vol. 33 (Marx and Engels 1992, 387-477).
