  • Org Ayuntamiento
    Desde hace ya cinco años, Madrid cuenta con un Festival Internacional de Documentales que atrae a un gran número de espectadores y es, a la vez, foro y lugar de encuentro para los profesionales del género. Un género, el cine de no ficción, que abarca una enorme variedad de propuestas, desde las puramente estéticas e innovadoras, hasta las que promueven enfoques de mayor calado, que evidencian las más variadas realidades sociales, culturales, artísticas o medioambientales. 6 En su edición de 2008, y como ya es habitual, Documenta tiene su principal foco de interés en su Sección Oficial. En ella, junto a las proyecciones de películas en sus dos formatos, corto y largometraje, en los que prima la originalidad, habrá un concurso de reportajes, que valorará especialmente el tratamiento y la presencia de la actualidad. Pero, además, el festival se nutrirá de sus siempre enriquecedoras secciones informativas. En ellas, destaca el homenaje a la figura de Michelangelo Antonioni, el enigmático cineasta, escritor y pintor italiano, célebre autor de la trilogía La aventura, La noche y El eclipse, que tanto dio que hablar a los cinéfilos españoles a comienzos de los sesenta, y sorprendente creador, más tarde, de Blow-up. Antonioni fue un gran innovador del cine y cultivó el género documental, a pesar de que su obra en este campo es prácticamente desconocida. Para tratar de rescatar del olvido esta valiosa faceta, se proyectarán algunos de sus trabajos. Muy vinculado a la mejor etapa de Antonioni, se ha programado también otro ciclo retrospectivo, Recuerdos del 68, con películas que evocarán los movimientos sociales y políticos del período, así como los sucesos de Mayo del 68 en París, coincidiendo con su 40 aniversario.

  • Happy Birthday, Dan Chatterton Joseph Lane
    of the Kate Sharpley Library No.3 July 2020 NOT the bulletin Stay safe, comrades 19th of July We remember the Spanish revolution of the 19th of July 1936. ‘“Here in Fraga [a small town in Aragon], you can throw banknotes into the street,” ran an article in a Libertarian paper, “and no one will take any notice. Rockefeller, if you were to come to Fraga with your entire bank account you would not be able to buy a cup of coffee. Money, your God and your servant, has been abolished here, and the people are happy.”’ [quoted in The Spanish Revolution: The left and the struggle for power during the Civil War by Burnett Bolloten, p71. The paper was Die Soziale Revolution, published by the Deutsche Anarchosyndikalisten (DAS) exiles. Issue three (and the others) can be read at https://www.anarchismus.at/zeitungen-bis-1945/die-soziale-revolution. More on the DAS at https://libcom.org/library/the-foreign-legion-revolution.] We have just posted the poem ‘Barcelona 1936’ by Hugo Dewar ‘They too were storming heaven – do you think they fought in vain; that because they lost a battle they would never rise again; that the man with the leaflets, the woman with a gun, did not have a daughter, did not have a son?’ https://www.katesharpleylibrary.net/2fr0d9 19th July was also the date (in 1968) of the first issue of the Bulletin of the Anarchist Black Cross, which would become Black Flag from volume 2.

  • EXTRACTS from a HISTORICAL ENCYCLOPAEDIA of SPANISH ANARCHISM by Miguel Iñiguez (Translated by Paul Sharkey)
    EXTRACTS from A HISTORICAL ENCYCLOPAEDIA of SPANISH ANARCHISM by Miguel Iñiguez (Translated by Paul Sharkey) http://www.christiebooks.com 1. CARBÓ CARBÓ, Eusebio. Palamós 1883-Mexico 1958. Coming from a family of federalists and anti-clericals, he was active in the Federalist Youth before going over to anarchism following his reading of Godwin, Proudhon, Kropotkin and Bakunin and observation of the world around him. A bit of a globe-trotter (even in his prison experience, seeing the inside of nearly sixty prisons from the age of 18 onwards) he lived for a long time in Valencia and travelled Europe and the Americas (he was especially familiar with Italy and knew many of the Italian anarchists, like Malatesta, Borghi and Fabbri, being much impressed by Malatesta). Early in the century (1905) he was close to the Avenir group and by the time the First World War came around he was an anarchist of some prestige. In 1915 he attended the congress in El Ferrol (representing Solidaridad Obrera), in 1918 he was at the Anarchist Conference in Barcelona, was present at the International Labour Congress in Geneva and the sixth congress of the F.N.A. in Valencia (where he was outstanding for his vehemence and hard line). His presence at the La Comedia congress in 1919 has been described as crucial: he drafted the anarchist manifesto, was on the working party on propaganda and opposed the line taken by Quintanilla. In the ensuing years he was a leading representative of the most anarchist tendency (and from 1921 stood out on account of his condemnation of the dictatorship of the proletariat).

  • La Revolución Por El Tejado
    Lucio Urtubia Jiménez la revolución por el tejado Autobiografía Traducción de Bego Montorio Edición a cargo de Joxerra Bustillo “Si algo sacamos de este libro, que sea para los presos” Lucio SUSTRAIAK En la casa parisina de Lucio hay dos lemas que presiden la fachada. Uno en francés: Le temps de Cerises, el tiempo de cerezas, la canción de La Comuna de París, que sigue ins- pirando todas las utopías planetarias de este anarco interna- cionalista. El otro lema es en euskara, Sustraiak. Raíces. De las que Urtubia no renuncia pese a sus contradiciones. No puede, ni quiere, dejar de ser un vascón navarro. “Seguís siendo unos carlistones” nos dice cuando hablamos de Eus- kal Herria. “Igual que tú”, le seguimos la broma. Pero todos sabemos que hay algo de cierto, y que los arroyos de nues- tras rebeldías y credos, aparentemente distintos, se remon- tan a la misma fuerte turbulenta del siglo XIX. No se ha es- tudiado lo suficiente la relación entre el fenómeno anarquis- ta y el carlismo rebelde y comunalista de ese siglo. Cómo de aquel campesinado autóctono, resentido contra el liberalis- mo acaparador, al que robaron el comunal e impusieron las quintas, las fronteras y la emigración, surgió en buena me- dida la izquierda revolucionaria. Los datos ahí están: los di- rigentes anarquistas de Lodosa y de otros pueblos navarros, 9 fusilados en 1936, eran de familias carlistas. El propio Lucio lo era. El Ateneo Libertario de Allo, principal foco anarquis- ta navarro, había surgido del Círculo Católico Obrero, en el mismo local, con los mismos socios y los mismos dirigentes.

As an activist in 1950s Paris he counted André Breton and Albert Camus among his friends, worked with the legendary anarchist urban guerrilla Francisco Sabate (El Quico) in attempting to bring down Franco’s fascist regime, and carried out numerous bank robberies to fund the struggle to free Spain.
