We know that the history of all know societies is the history of class struggle, invluding slave societies (ancient greece, ancient rome) and feudal societies (middle age europe). So there must have been revolutions from the oppressed classes against their respective ruling classes. Are there any Marxist texts that describe these revolutions?

    Bond Men Made Free: Medieval Peasant Movements and the English Peasant Rising of 1381 by Rodney Hilton is supposed to be a good analysis of the English Peasants’ Revolt; an abortive attempt by the bourgeoisie and the peasants to end serfdom. The English would later go on to achieve bourgeois dominance of the state during the English Civil War, another historical process worth looking at if you want to see how capitalism developed in England.
