En 1893, se crea en la ciudad de Patras la Socialistiki Adelfotis (Hermandad Socialista), que es una sociedad de socorro mutuo entre socialistas, progresistas y anarquistas. En 1894 publicó el periódico “To Fos” (la luz) y para 1895, la Hermandad llegó a 500 miembros activos. Aprovechando este auge en sus filas uno de sus integrantes más significativos el socialista Platón Drakoulis, decide participar en un proceso electoral, lo que genero un cisma en la Hermandad debido a la política anti-electoral de algunos anarquistas y socialistas radicales, lo que produjo que se creara ese mismo año el Club Socialista de Patras.

Some Nihilists I Have Met

Voltairine de Cleyre

 

An introduction

by Robert P. Helms, Philadelphia, May 2013

Voltairine de Cleyre (1866-1912) has drawn plenty of well-deserved attention in recent years by historians of anarchism, of feminism, sex radicalism, and atheism. My research for a book on the early anarchists of Philadelphia has caused me to understand ever more clearly why, during her life, she was considered an intellectual of very high stature, why she was respected by social reformers of many varieties for her body-and-soul dedication to helping and educating the poor, and why she was loved or even revered by fellow anarchists.

Some Nihilists I Have Met

by Voltairine de Cleyre

[From Worthington’s Illustrated Monthly Magazine (Hartford CT), October 1893]

The word nihilist is so generally associated with darkness, secrecy, dynamite, assassination and blood, that had someone whispered five minutes before the encounter, “You are about to meet a Russian nihilist,” I should, no doubt, have hastily retreated to the shelter of law-abiding domiciles, far from the dirty, tortuous, downtown quarter, where, amidst a labyrinth of alleys and deceitful little streets that mockingly led against walls, and then turned back into one another, I found myself one snowy afternoon, picking my way somewhat disgustedly with no very clear idea concerning my exact whereabouts.

Zo d’Axa, L’En-dehors

edA-Titre

Les articles qui suivent ont initialement été publiés dans le journal l’En-dehors, hebdomadaire fondé par Zo d’Axa, qui paraît de mai 1891 à janvier 1893.

Une des choses qui frappe à la lecture des textes de Zo d’Axa, plus de cent ans après, est leur étonnante actualité. Quand il nous parle du citoyennisme (légitime défense), des rapports sociaux de prédation (les lyncheurs) ou de l’influence des médias (par l’image), on ne peut s’empêcher de regarder par la fenêtre et d’apercevoir la même pourriture, le même voyeurisme teinté du culte de la charogne (au pied de la guillotine) et la même hypocrisie humanitaire (à Paris ! les mineurs) censée masquer tout le reste.

Inno della Rivolta

Luigi Molinari

 

Scritto nel 1893 da Luigi Molinari, il testo fu pubblicato l’anno seguente sul giornale anarchico “La Favilla” di Mantova come poesia dal titolo “Dies Irae”.
Luigi Molinari scrisse quest’Inno in occasione dei disordini fomentati da socialisti ed anarchici in Lunigiana in solidarietà ai braccianti ed agli operai siciliani che in quelle stesse settimane subivano l’attacco dei soldati mandati dal governo Crispi a reprimere i Fasci dei Lavoratori, movimento che si era via via rafforzato parallelamente all’acuirsi della crisi finanziaria del Regno e ai provvedimenti (soprattutto l’aumento del carico fiscale, del prezzo del sale e e del dazio sul grano) varati dall’allora ministro dell’Economia Tremonti – pardon! – Sonnino per pareggiare il bilancio.
Molinari fu arrestato per sedizione ed il testo del suo Inno costituì prova nel processo a suo carico. Condannato a 23 anni di reclusione fu amnistiato l’anno seguente.
