Kevin Carson on Corvus, and an update

Kevin Carson’s latest post talks about my micropublishing project, Corvus Editions, as an example of “household and informal microenterprise.” It includes some details about operating costs and such, taken from a mailing list exchange, which will be new to readers of this blog. I’ll be producing a report on the first three months of operations, in the first issue of M. Corbeau’s Blackbird, sometime around October 1. I expect to have about 100 titles in the catalog at that point, including a third issue of LeftLiberty, a collection of mutualist, proto-mutualist, and near-mutualist texts from the Owenite “high tide” of […]

Blog recycling, Part 1

The old sister-site of this blog, From the Libertarian Library, has been pretty much forlorn and abandoned since I set up the wiki site for the Libertarian Labyrinth archive.

Basic writings by Voltairine de Cleyre

While there is no shortage of editions of Voltairine de Cleyre’s writings, I’ve put together a collection which includes those I use most often, or recommend most often to others.

Invisible Molotov also has much of this material, in more confrontational packaging. Pick the package that fits your audience.

Proudhon’s “Toast to the Revolution” as a bilingual pamphlet

A new purpose for an old blog, the raison d’être of which had been largely eliminated by my migration of the Libertarian Labyrinth archive to the wiki site: a new series of downloadable pdf pamphlets from the archive. First up: Proudhon’s “Toast to the Revolution,” in an English-French bilingual edition. Please let me know if you have any trouble with these pamphlets. I’m also printing actual hard-copy pamphlets for local distribution, and will probably be issuing a few more elaborately produced items as fund-raisers for research materials.
