"Long live anarchy." eMile Henry's father,
-
a militant republican, who wrote poetry,
-
had been elected to the Commune from the tenth arrondissement,
-
and was a member of the Central Committee of
-
the Federated National Guard in the Paris Commune.
-
He fled under a sentence of death to Spain.
-
And in Catalonia he worked in the mines,
-
turning from socialism to anarchism;
-
because the anarchists were terribly influential in Spain
-
right through the Spanish Civil War,
-
particularly in Barcelona and also in Andalusia,
-
in the south.
