Born in Vercelli in 1861, Luigi Galleani is considered, with Errico Malatesta, the most influential militant of Italian-speaking anarchism. A tireless thinker, agitator, and public speaker, he attracted large numbers of workers to the revolutionary cause in Italy and the United States. This book, the result of a fruitful collaboration between Antonio Senta, a scholar of anarchist history, and Sean Sayers, a philosopher and Galleani’s grandson, is the biography of one of the most charismatic exponents of workers’ struggles in Europe and the United States between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Work Description

Nato a Vercelli nel 1861, Luigi Galleani è considerato, insieme a Errico Malatesta, il militante più influente dell’anarchismo di lingua italiana. Fine pensatore e agitatore instancabile, attraverso un’intensa attività pubblicistica e di conferenziere avvicinò alla causa rivoluzionaria un gran numero di lavoratori. Questo libro, frutto della proficua collaborazione tra Antonio Senta, studioso del movimento anarchico, e Sean Sayers, filosofo e nipote di Galleani, è oggi l’unica biografia di uno dei protagonisti più carismatici delle lotte operaie in Europa e negli Stati Uniti tra Otto e Novecento.
