Engels refers to Kant in *Anti-Duhring*, and re general philosophical tradition, Marx in his chapter of the *Antii-Duhring* jumps all over Duhring for attacking Plato. As far as I could tell Marx had a pretty protective attitude towards Plato, Aristotle, and Ricardo. *He* could lambaste them, but he could get real mean if others did.
