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

"This account of the Cyprus revolt analyses its causes, and documents many of the incidents during the four dangerous and violent years before the Zurich agreements were signed in London in February 1959. The author, a Cypriot, is able to reveal something of the daring and ingenious methods of the EOKA guerrillas; their hide-outs in the mountains and forests, or in a peasant's cellar; their secret organisation which penetrated the church, the administration, even the police." - from dust jacket.
