After having announced last September the availability of the Michael Bedford Collection, it is now time to announce the same for the Michael Bedford Papers.
The French collection is among the larger national collections at the IISH. Materials date back to the emergence of the revolutionary ideology in the second half of the eighteenth century.
The IISH is the most important worldwide repository of anarchist records and papers.
At first sight, Raymond Craib’s The Cry of the Renegade, Politics and Poetry in Interwar Chile, is a biography of the anarchist poet José Domingo Gómez Rojas (1896-1920).
Missratene Söhne. Anarchismus und Sprachkritik im Fin de Siècle by Carolin Kosuch is a triple-biography of three befriended Jewish 'rebels' around the turn of the century, Gustav Landauer, Erich Mühsam and Fritz Mauthner.
Gustav Landauer (1870-1919) is known in a small circle as anarchist theorist, writer and translator of Shakespeare. He was also minister of propaganda in the short-lived Bavarian Council Republic of 1919.
