LYON, François Guillot/PARIS, Dantu - 1831 - In-8 - Broché - Frontispice-gravure en taille douce dépliant représentant la barrière de la Croix-rousse - Gravure dépliante en taille douce in-fine représentant le combat du Pont Morand - 48 pages - Rare "Le 20 novembre 1831 l’association mutuelle des chefs d’atelier de soierie décide la grève générale pour obliger les fabricants à respecter le tarif de façon réclamé pacifiquement par les tisseurs et fixé en commun sous l’égide du maire et du préfet trois semaines plus tôt. Ils se heurtent à la garde nationale bourgeoise et à l’armée. Après deux jours de combats ils occupent l’hôtel de ville, mais leurs divisions permettent au préfet de rétablir son autorité dès le 24. Le bilan est lourd ; près de 200 morts, deux fois plus de blessés, civils et militaires ; abolition du tarif et interdiction des associations au nom du libéralisme. Toutefois la plupart des inculpés seront acquittés, eu égard aux difficultés économiques. Le 9 avril 1834, pendant le procès de tisseurs accusés de coalition et de grève, des coups de feu tirés sur la foule déclenchent une semaine de combats encore plus meurtriers : plus de 300 morts, près de 600 blessés. On se bat pour la république autant que pour la liberté d’association(D’autres villes se soulèvent). Voir la lithographie de Daumier Rue Transnonain, le 15 avril 1834). La répression est brutale : condamnations à la prison, à la déportation ; rétablissement de la censure. Sans association ni journaux, la contestation semble écrasée. Une amnistie sera accordée en 1837".Hélène DELPECH

56 pages including footnotes and advertisements. Includes several pertinent cartoons from Vancouver newspapers of the early 1900s. "In the course of preliminary research (of the Komagata Maru incident in 1914) I discovered a true Canadian hero, William Hopkinson, an immigration inspector in Vancouver, who conducted undercover operations among Indian immigrants. It was his intelligence briefings and advice that helped stiffen the backbone of the government in dealing with the shipload of illegals. In preparation for C-FAR's rally in Vancouver to commemorate the 75th anniversary of Hopkinson's assassination by a Sikh extremist, I asked Robert Jarvis to research the Vancouver archives on Hopkinson and the events surrounding the Komagata Maru. His investigations let to this booklet. He quickly found that the strong opposition - by politicians and labour - to the Komagata Maru could be traced back to the activitiess of the Asiatic Exclusion Leage, formed some eight years before. What Mr. Jarvis has found is a long ignored and misreported chapter in Canadian history." - Paul Fromm, from Introduction. Unmarked. Light wear. Nice copy. Book
