"From Charles d'Avray's The Triumph of Anarchy through to LEo FerrE and his Neither God nor master, singers and composers with anarchist leanings have, each in his own way, illustrated the social history of the 19th and 20th centuries. Militant songs expressing for the most part a deep-rooted antipathy to any form of authority, of government, of war and religions, or social songs occasionally tinged with black humour, this freedom repertoire provides a valuable contribution to the understanding of the way anarchists were thinking. Jean Buzelin and Christian Marcadet have put together an anthology, the largest ever collected in France, of this fascinating but little-known subject." Patrick FREMEAUX
