I was wondering if you guys could list some biographies of Rosa Luxemburg, and some people who have summarized her work (excluding Tony Cliff).

This is the most famous biography. I've read it and thought it was very good. The book deals with both her life and her works (and how they relate to the ongoing events she was involved in).

Not a book, but there's an OK film about her life. Called, appropriately enough, "Rosa Luxemburg".

Thread about it here (http://www.revleft.com/vb/movie-rosa-luxemburg-t148241/index.html).

JP Nettl's biography of Luxemburg is considered authoritative. I read last year and enjoyed it very much.

Paul LeBlanc edited a very fine book on her, which includes an overview, the publication of rare works by Luxemburg, and a small collection of essays exploring her life & politics.
