AVERTISSEMENT AUX PROPRIÉTAIRES LETTRE A M. VICTOR CONSIDÉRANT Rédacteur de la Phalange SUR UNE DÉFENSE DE LA PROPRIÉTÉ Monsieur le Rédacteur, J’ai lu la brochure intitulée : Défense du fouriérisme, Réponse à MM. Proudhon, Lamennais, […]
Each person is who they are. Their truths are personal to them, living like themselves, and therefore changing. But if souls are reasonable, their thoughts, their passions and their acts can, assembled and combined, present visions that are doubtless diverse, but always beautiful, of universal beauty. […]
Solidarity is to liberty what immobility is to movement, what darkness is to light, what community is to reciprocity, what the old formula, association, is to the new formula, assurance. Solidarity, raised to its highest power, is Communism. Liberty, reduced to its simplest expression, is Mutualism. […]
In Besançon, homeland of General Moncey, the Jesuit Nonotte, the academician Suard, Charles Nodier and Victor Hugo, a male child was born on January 15, 1809. The earth trembled, the sky hid its azure. A shiver of terror shook the men. […]
The goal is to translate the twelve studies in Justice in the Revolution and in the Church—and to do so, where necessary, twice, producing translations of both the 1858 first edition and the expanded and corrected 1860 edition. I’m revising my 2009 translation of the 1860 “Program” for about the third time and will I will tackle the extensive notes and “Nouvelles de la Révolution” (which make up two of the six volumes of the second edition) as I complete the relevant studies, including La Pornocratie, which appears in manuscript form as one more of the “Nouvelles” sections and was originally intended by Proudhon to follow the two studies on “Love and Marriage.” […]
PREMIÈRE ÉTUDE POSITION DU PROBLÈME DE LA JUSTICE À Son Éminence Mgr Matthieu, Cardinal-Archevêque de Besançon. Monseigneur, Avez-vous eu connaissance d’un petit livre, format in-32, couverture jaune, qui a paru, il y a tantôt deux […]
These draft translations are part of on ongoing effort to translate both editions of Proudhon’s Justice in the Revolution and in the Church into English, together with some related works, as the first step toward establishing an edition of Proudhon’s works in English. They are very much a first step, as there are lots of decisions about how best to render the texts which can only be answered in the course of the translation process. It seems important to share the work as it is completed, even in rough form, but the drafts are not suitable for scholarly work or publication elsewhere in their present state. […]

A church or a temple. Light, many lights. Candles that illuminate vast crucifixes, or a Christmas tree laden with toys, a fir tree whose evergreen branches evoke the image of eternity. Organs whose sonic flights seem an echo of celestial hymns. Carols that remind us of those with which our mothers rocked us to sleep… Handsome gentlemen in frock coats, tight at the waist, with eight shining gleams; polished, pomaded, combed, varnished, tied. Beautiful, elegant, fragrant ladies, studded with jewels, real or fake, whose slightly raised skirts reveal an expensively shod foot at the end of a finely arched ankle… Good, honest families in their Sunday best, made respectable, troops of children whose happy faces the symbolic tree illuminates… Ease, comfort, joy!… all that is good.
