1906rif. 43219London: "Arbayter fraynd 1906. First Yiddish edition. Period boards 8vo xiii 426 pages 19 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates as “Words from a Revolutionary.” Translation of “Paroles d'un re´volte´.” Includes translation of the forewords by the author and Elise´e Reclus. Includes bibliographical references. “During his long exile Kropotkin wrote a series of influential works the most important being ‘Paroles d’un révolté’ 1885; “Words of a Rebel”.Kropotkin’s aim as he often remarked was to provide anarchism with a scientific basis. In Mutual Aid which is widely regarded as his masterpiece he argued that despite the Darwinian concept of the survival of the fittest cooperation rather than conflict is the chief factor in the evolution of species. Providing abundant examples he showed that sociability is a dominant feature at every level of the animal world. Among humans too he found that mutual aid has been the rule rather than the exception. He traced the evolution of voluntary cooperation from the primitive tribe peasant village and medieval commune to a variety of modern associations—trade unions learned societies the Red Cross—that have continued to practice mutual support despite the rise of the coercive bureaucratic state. The trend of modern history he believed was pointing back toward decentralized nonpolitical cooperative societies in which people could develop their creative faculties without interference from rulers clerics or soldiers.” SUBJECTS: Anarchism.

rif. 24743‘18bre sic 1855’ Wimbledon London. An interesting letter indicating the networks of sympathisers who assisted those fleeing to England in the years following the revolutions of 1848. In the July 1895 edition of the Atlantic the subject of this letter the Christian Socialist J. M. Ludlow in reviewing Nadaud’s memoirs described him as ‘a friend of my own of many years’ standing’. The present item was written in the seventh of the eighteen years of Nadaud’s English exile part of which was spent as a teacher in Wimbledon under the name ‘Henri Geo. Nadaud’. The identity of the recipient is not known. 4pp 16mo. Bifolium on grey paper. Worn and with a small part of one corner torn away but in fair overall condition. Folded once for postage. Sixty-six lines of text addressed to ‘Cher Mons Delabussière’ and signed ‘Martin’. He begins by explaining why he has not been able to return in person the ‘numéro’ of a periodical that Delabussière has sent him and that he has read with great pleasure. He had previously made arrangements about altered worktimes with a colleague. He goes on to ask whether Delabussière would like to dine with him the following Wednesday and whether he would like him to invite ‘Boura’ and another man as well. He states that he does not recall talking to Boura on the subject of a letter ‘écrite par le monsieur ou je suis à celui que je venais de quitter. / Le fait de votre réussite parle assez haut en lui même pour que aucun on dit ne puisse atteindre votre amore propre. Si on n’avait pas eu confiance en vous je n’y pourais pas été appele’ He hopes that Delabussière's ‘association’ brings him money as friends are rare and a man is placed in the scales of wealth rather than of honour. He has distributed Delabussière's prospectuses along with his own calling card and bids him visit ‘un de mes bons amis Mr Ludlow avocat anglais 3 Old Square Lincom-inn sic’ and tell him that he is ‘le professeur de Mechanics institution’ and ‘il aura peut être un collège à vous offrir’. It will be worth his while ‘car ces messieurs font des sacrifices énormes pour l’education du peuple anglais’. He gives a few further instructions regarding how to approach Ludlow ending ‘Il sait toute mon affaire je ne lui cache rien!’ ‘18bre [sic] 1855’ [Wimbledon, London]. unknown

1949Very Good Armenian Original half bound leather bdg. Large demy8vo. (22 x 15,5 cm). In Armenian. 675 p. Prior to Soviet rule, the Dashnaksutiun had governed the First Republic of Armenia. The Socialist Soviet Republic of Armenia was founded in 1920. Diaspora Armenians were divided about this: supporters of the nationalist Dashnaksutiun did not support the Soviet state, while supporters of the Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU) were more positive about the newly founded Soviet state. From 1828 with the Treaty of Turkmenchay to the October Revolution in 1917, Eastern Armenia had been part of the Russian Empire and partly confined to the borders of the Erivan Governorate. After the October Revolution, Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin's government announced that minorities in the empire could pursue a course of self-determination. Following the collapse of the empire, in May 1918 Armenia, and its neighbors Azerbaijan and Georgia, declared their independence from Russian rule and each established their respective republics. After the near-annihilation of the Armenians during the Armenian Genocide and the subsequent Turkish-Armenian War, the historic Armenian area in the Ottoman Empire was overrun with despair and devastation. A number of Armenians joined the advancing 11th Soviet Red Army. Afterward, Turkey and the newly proclaimed Soviet republics in the Caucasus negotiated the Treaty of Kars, in which Turkey resigned from its claims to Batumi to Georgia in exchange for the Kars territory, corresponding to the modern-day Turkish provinces of Kars, Igdir, and Ardahan. The medieval Armenian capital of Ani, as well as the cultural icon of the Armenian people Mount Ararat, were located in the ceded area. Additionally, Joseph Stalin, then acting Commissar for Nationalities, granted the areas of Nakhchivan and Nagorno-Karabakh (both of which were promised to Armenia by the Bolsheviks in 1920) to Azerbaijan. From 12 March 1922 to 5 December 1936, Armenia was a part of the Transcaucasian SFSR (TSFSR) together with the Georgian SSR and the Azerbaijan SSR. The policies of the first Soviet Armenian government, the Revolutionary Committee (Revkom), headed by young, inexperienced, and militant communists such as Sarkis Kasyan and Avis Nurijanyan, were implemented in a highhanded manner and did not take into consideration the poor conditions of the republic and the general weariness of the people after years of conflict and civil strife. Such was the degree and scale of the requisitioning and terror imposed by the local Cheka that in February 1921 the Armenians, led by former leaders of the republic, rose up in revolt and briefly unseated the communists in Yerevan. The Red Army, which was campaigning in Georgia at the time, returned to suppress the revolt and drove its leaders out of Armenia. Convinced that these heavy-handed tactics were the source of the alienation of the native population to Soviet rule, in 1921 Moscow appointed an experienced administrator, Alexander Miasnikian, to carry out a more moderate policy and one better attuned to Armenian sensibilities. With the introduction of the New Economic Policy (NEP), Armenians began to enjoy a period of relative stability. Life under the Soviet rule proved to be a soothing balm in contrast to the turbulent final years of the Ottoman Empire. The Armenians received medicine, food, as well as other provisions from the central government and extensive literacy reforms were carried [.] Only one copy is located in OCLC: 782028953 (National Library of Israel - Jewish National Library).
