1814 -- The Marquis de Sade (The 120 Days of
Sodom) dies in mental asylum near
 Paris. Last will asks that he be kept in an open casket
for 48 hours, until it can be
proved that he is definitely dead.

1859 -- Emperor Norton I dismisses Beloved &
Respected Comrade Leader Governor Wise of Virginia

                     "I could argue all day about the
                      significance of facing east in religious
                      rituals, but a clean table is a clean table."

1859 -- Georges Seurat lives to spend Sundays in the

The complicated relationship between anarchism & art
is the subject of several new works. Paul Smith’s Seurat
& the Avant-garde (Yale University, 1997) studies the
post-Impressionist painter  Georges Seurat & offers a
critical view of his relationship to anarchism. Readers
of German may enjoy Raimund Schäffner’s Anarchismus
& Literatur in England (1997, Carl Winter), as Spanish
readers may enjoy Sonya Torres Planells’s Ramón Acín
(1888-1936): una Estética Anarquista y de Vanguardia
(Editorial Virus, 1998). Acín was a Spanish sculptor,
painter, & cartoonist as well as an active member of the
CNT. He was murdered by fascists in 1936 at the
beginning of the Spanish social revolution.
