WORLD WORLDWIDE EUROPE ITALY - news journal UPDATE - (en) Italy, FAI, Umanita Nova #16-25 - Emma Goldman - Living My Life. Vol. III (1908-1917) (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 After years of absence, the third volume of Emma Goldman's autobiography

returns to Italian with a new translation. ---- The text covers the
period between 1908 and 1917, portraying Emma at the height of her
revolutionary fervor, in years marked by growing repression and the rush
to war. In these pages we find radical opposition to militarism and
nationalism, denunciation of the repressive apparatus, defense of
conscientious objection, fierce criticism of capitalism and the State,
campaigns for conscious motherhood and free love and much more.

One of the central elements of the text is certainly Emma's
antimilitarism, which clearly and decisively opposes compulsory military
service and prevailing patriotism, inviting desertion even when
repression becomes very harsh.

Another fundamental element is the rejection of bourgeois moralism, of
the patriarchal family and of the subordination of women to imposed
social duties. Emma fights for access to contraception, for free love,
for autonomy of choice against any religious or state interference.

In our present made of wars, security rhetoric and domesticated
feminisms, rereading Emma Goldman means putting back at the center of
the discussion themes such as radical antimilitarism, the critique of
patriarchy, internationalist solidarity and anarchism as a concrete
practice.
