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." Three biographical essays are also included: two new ones by Sharon Presley and Crispin Sartwell, and a rarely reprinted one from Emma Goldman."--JacketAnarchismUnited StatesFeminismUnited StatesAnarchismFeminism335/.83/092De Cleyre Voltairine1866-1912.793779Presley Sharon1700592Sartwell Crispin1958-593873MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819316403321Exquisite rebel4083711UNINA
