Voltairine !

by voltairine.org (presley [at] voltairine.org)
The radical feminist writings of Voltairine de Cleyre,
1866 – 1912, come back to life on 20 January 2005.

"EXQUISITE REBEL:

THE ESSAYS OF VOLTAIRINE DE CLEYRE -
ANARCHIST,
FEMINIST,
GENIUS"
by Voltairine de Cleyre
Edited by Sharon Presley and Crispin Sartwell
SUNY Press
332 pp.

Emma Goldman called Voltairine de Cleyre
"the most gifted and brilliant anarchist woman America ever produced."

Yet her writings and speeches on anarchism and feminism
— as radical, passionate, and popular at the time as Goldman's —
are virtually unknown today.

This important book brings de Cleyre's eloquent and incisive work
out of undeserved obscurity.

Twenty-one essays are reprinted here,
including her classic works:
"Anarchism and the American Tradition,"
"The Dominant Idea,"
and "Sex Slavery."
