Rosa Luxemburg (1871-1919), militante socialiste et communiste, théoricienne marxiste, assassinée lors de la répression spartakiste. L.A.S. « Dr Rosa Luxemburg », Berlin, 5 octobre 1906, 2p in-8. A l'éditeur Pierre-Victor Stock (1861-1943), qui édita notamment de nombreux auteurs anarchistes : « Monsieur, A Hambourg vient de paraître une brochure allemande sur la Grève Générale et le Syndicalisme, écrite par moi et fondée sur l'expérience de la Révolution russe. Cette brochure sera traduite prochainement en russe et en hollandais. Mr Victor Mayer me propose de la traduire en français et de vous demander si vous voulez vous charger de l'édition. La dite brochure contient 4 feuilles (à 16) en petit allemand, ce qui fera en français à peu près 7 œ. Veuillez bien me faire savoir si la proposition vous convient et quelles seraient vos conditions. Agréez, Monsieur, mes salutations empressées. Dr Rosa Luxemburg ». Victor Mayer est un juif russe, né le 11 novembre 1878 à Irkoutsk, étudiant à Kiev en 1900, qui émigra avec sa famille, probablement pour fuir l'antisémitisme. Il prit le nom de Victor Remay, fut un orateur remarqué et devint l'orateur de la fédération socialiste de la Seine. Il était donc en lien avec Rosa Luxemburg, qui était elle aussi une juive ayant quitté le territoire russe (elle est né à Zamosc, Pologne actuelle mais alors en Russie). Toutefois Mayer semble n'avoir jamais traduit l'ouvrage et Victor Stock refusa dès réception de la lettre comme l'indique la note « refusé le 8 octobre 1906 ». L'ouvrage fut toutefois traduit en 1910 sous le titre La Grève en Masse, le Parti et les Syndicats (Gand, Société coopérative « Volksdrujjerij », 1910). Cette traduction est l'oeuvre d'Alexandre Bracke-Desrousseaux (1861-1955) qui devient ainsi le premier traducteur de Rosa Luxemburg en français. Ils s'étaient rencontrés lors de congrès socialistes internationaux. Une nouvelle édition eut lieu en 1964 sous le titre Grève de masses, parti et syndicats (Paris, Marpéro, 1964). Intéressant courrier autour de son oeuvre. Les lettres de Rosa Luxemburg sont d'une grande rareté. [353-2]

Longue et intéressante lettre à propos d'une épître que La Tailhède souhaite envoyer à Austin de Croze (1866-1937) et que Desrousseaux critique pour l'améliorer. La Tailhède répondait en effet à une grande enquête sur « Les poètes, Mistral et le vers libre » publiée dans la Revue félibréenne. Sa réponse y est publiée dans le tome XIV (1898-1899), pages 94 à 96. Il est intéressant de noter que La Tailhède n'a pas tenu compte de toutes les remarques de Desrousseaux. Très beau document.

The very rare first edition of Rosa Luxemburg's magnum opus - ""without doubt, one of the most original contributions to Marxist economic doctrine since ""Capital"". In its wealth of knowledge, brilliance of style, trenchancy of analysis and intellectual independence, this book, as Mehring, Marx's biographer, stated, was the nearest to ""Capital"" of any Marxist work. The central problem it studies is of tremendous theoretical and political importance: namely, what effects the extension of capitalism into new, backward territories has on the internal contradictions rending capitalism and on the stability of the system."" (Tony Cliff). Rosa Luxemburg (1871-1919) was one of the most influential Marxists of the late 19th century. In her youth, she joined the socialist movement and went to Switzerland in exile in 1889. Here she studied law and economics and developed close connections to the leading members of the Russian socialist party. As opposed to Lenin, she was in complete favour of internationalism and therefore in opposition to the established Russian and Polish socialist parties that supported Polish independence. In 1893, she co-founded what was to be the forerunner of the Polish Communist Party, namely the Socialdemocratic Labour Party of Poland.In 1899, Rosa Luxemburg settled in Berlin and joined the German Socildemocratic Party, SPD and represented the revolutionary wing. She believed strongly in revolutionary mass action, but as opposed to Lenin, she was not completely bound to the revolutionary party and spoke out against movements like the reform union in Germany. ""Rosa Luxemburg was born in the small Polish town of Zamosc on 5 March 1871. From early youth she was active in the socialist movement. She joined a revolutionary party called Proletariat, founded in 1882, some 21 years before the Russian Social Democratic Party (Bolsheviks and Mensheviks) came into being. From the beginning Proletariat was, in principles and programme, many steps ahead of the revolutionary movement in Russia. While the Russian revolutionary movement was still restricted to acts of individual terrorism carried out by a few heroic intellectuals, Proletariat was organising and leading thousands of workers on strike. In 1886, however, Proletariat was practically decapitated by the execution of four of its leaders, the imprisonment of 23 others for long terms of hard labour, and the banishment of about 200 more. Only small circles were saved from the wreck, and it was one of these that Rosa Luxemburg joined at the age of 16. By 1889 the police had caught up with her, and she had to leave Poland, her comrades thinking she could do more useful work abroad than in prison. She went to Switzerland, to Zurich, which was the most important centre of Polish and Russian emigration. There she entered the university where she studied natural sciences, mathematics and economics. She took an active part in the local labour movement and in the intense intellectual life of the revolutionary emigrants.Hardly more than a couple of years later Rosa Luxemburg was already recognised as the theoretical leader of the revolutionary socialist party of Poland. She became the main contributor to the party paper, Sprawa Rabotnicza, published in Paris. In 1894 the name of the party, Proletariat, was changed to become the Social Democratic Party of the Kingdom of Poland" shortly afterwards Lithuania was added to the title. Rosa continued to be the theoretical leader of the party (the SDKPL) till the end of her life.In August 1893 she represented the party at the Congress of the Socialist International. There, a young woman of 22, she had to contend with well-known veterans of another Polish party, the Polish Socialist Party (PPS), whose main plank was the independence of Poland and which claimed the recognition of all the experienced elders of international socialism. Support for the national movement in Poland had the weight of long tradition behind it: Marx and Engels, too, had made it an important plank in their policies. Undaunted by all this, Rosa Luxemburg struck out at the PPS, accusing it of clear nationalistic tendencies and a proneness to diverting the workers from the path of class struggle" and she dared to take a different position to the old masters and oppose the slogan of independence for Poland. (For elaboration on this, see Rosa Luxemburg and the national question below.) Her adversaries heaped abuse on her, some of them, like the veteran disciple and friend of Marx and Engels, Wilhelm Liebknecht, going so far as to accuse her of being an agent of the Tsarist secret police. But she stuck to her point.Intellectually she grew by leaps and bounds. She was drawn irresistibly to the centre of the international labour movement, Germany, where she made her way in 1898."" (Tony Cliff, Rosa Luxemburg Biography).In 1919, she was captured and murdered by reactionary freetroop officers, but her theoretical works remained highly influential throughout almost a century. As late as the 1960'ies and 70'ies, she was still seen as somewhat of a revolutionary hero and champion of communism. ""When the First World War broke out, practically all the leaders of the Socialist Party [SPD] were swept into the patriotic tide. On 3 August 1914 the parliamentary group of German Social Democracy decided to vote in favour of war credits for the Kaiser’s government. Of the 111 deputies only 15 showed any desire to vote against. However, after their request for permission to do so had been rejected, they submitted to party discipline, and on 4 August the whole Social Democratic group unanimously voted in favour of the credits. A few months later, on 2 December, Karl Liebknecht flouted party discipline to vote with his conscience. His was the sole vote against war credits.This decision of the party leadership was a cruel blow to Rosa Luxemburg. However, she did not give way to despair. On the same day, 4 August, on which the Social Democratic deputies rallied to the Kaiser’s banner, a small group of socialists met in her apartment and decided to take up the struggle against the war. This group, led by Luxemburg, Karl Liebknecht, Franz Mehring and Clara Zetkin, ultimately became the Spartakus League. For four years, mainly from prison, Rosa continued to lead, inspire and organise the revolutionaries, keeping high the banner of international socialism...The revolution in Russia of February 1917 was a realisation of Rosa Luxemburg’s policy of revolutionary opposition to the war and struggle for the overthrow of imperialist governments. Feverishly she followed the events from prison, studying them closely in order to draw lessons for the future. Unhesitatingly she stated that the February victory was not the end of the struggle but only its beginning, that only workers’ power could assure peace. From prison she issued call after call to the German workers and soldiers to emulate their Russian brethren, overthrow the Junkers and capitalists and thus, while serving the Russian Revolution, at the same time prevent themselves from bleeding to death under the ruins of capitalist barbarism.When the October Revolution broke out, Rosa Luxemburg welcomed it enthusiastically, praising it in the highest terms. At the same time she did not believe that uncritical acceptance of everything the Bolsheviks did would be of service to the labour movement. She clearly foresaw that if the Russian Revolution remained in isolation a number of distortions would cripple its development" and quite early in the development of Soviet Russia she pointed out such distortions, particularly on the question of democracy.On 8 November 1918 the German Revolution freed Rosa Luxemburg from prison. With all her energy and enthusiasm she threw herself into the revolution. Unfortunately the forces of reaction were strong. Right-wing Social Democratic leaders and generals of the old Kaiser’s army joined forces to suppress the revolutionary working class. Thousands of workers were murdered on 15 January 1919 Karl Liebknecht was killed" on the same day a soldier’s rifle butt smashed into Rosa Luxemburg’s skull.With her death the international workers’ movement lost one of its noblest souls. ""The finest brain amongst the scientific successors of Marx and Engels"", as Mehring said, was no more. In her life, as in her death, she gave everything for the liberation of humanity.""

St Petersburg State publishing house 1921 Couverture souple. Première édition. Les couvertures sont en bon état, propres, avec juste un peu de marques. Bien qu'imprimé sur du papier bon marché, l'ouvrage est propre et bien rangé, avec juste un peu de noircissement et de rouille aux agrafes. Signature illisible du propriétaire sur le bord supérieur de la page de titre. Les lettres incluses dans ce recueil sont adressées à Sophie Liebknecht, épouse de Karl Liebknecht. Les lettres ne sont pas politiques et ne mentionnent que rarement la politique. Il s'agit plutôt de lettres personnelles entre deux amies, dans lesquelles elle parle de la nature et de la botanique, qui l'intéressent beaucoup. Il semble qu'il s'agisse de la véritable première de ces lettres. Il y a eu une impression moscovite des "Lettres de prison" en 1920, mais elle était d'une longueur différente et, pour autant que nous puissions le voir, il ne s'agissait pas des lettres à Sophie Liebknecht. Nous ne sommes pas en mesure de retrouver la trace de cette édition dans FirstSearch. Les Lettres ont ensuite été publiées en anglais en 1923 et en français en 1933. Bien que nous considérions que le Saint-Pétersbourg soviétique s'appelle Leningrad, le nom n'a été changé qu'en 1924. Avec Karl Liebknecht, Luxemburg fonde l'International Group / Spartacus League. Ils s'opposent à la position de l'Allemagne dans la Première Guerre mondiale et encouragent les grèves ouvrières pour saper cette position. En conséquence, Luxemburg et Liebknecht sont emprisonnés en juin 1916 pour deux ans et demi. (C'est pendant cette période que ces lettres ont été écrites). Luxemburg continua d'écrire et ses amis firent passer secrètement ses articles en contrebande et les publièrent illégalement. Parmi ceux-ci, "Die Russische Revolution" (La révolution russe) critique les bolcheviks et les accuse de vouloir imposer un État totalitaire à parti unique à l'Union soviétique. C'est dans ce contexte qu'elle a écrit le dicton tristement célèbre "Freiheit ist immer die Freiheit des Andersdenkenden" ("La liberté est toujours la liberté de celui qui pense différemment"). Luxemburg et Liebknecht ont été libérés de prison en novembre 1918. Le 1er janvier 1919, le Parti communiste allemand (KPD) est fondé sous la direction de Liebknecht et Luxemburg. Peu de temps après, ils prennent tous deux la tête du soulèvement spartakiste (en allemand : Spartakusaufstand), également connu sous le nom de soulèvement de janvier (Januaraufstand), un soulèvement armé qui a lieu à Berlin du 5 au 12 janvier 1919.

Softback. First Edition. Text in Russian. The covers are in good, clean condition, with just a touch of marking to them. Although printed on cheap paper, internally the work is clean and tidy, with just a little darkening and rusting to the staples. Illegible owner's signature to the top edge of the title page. The letters included in this collection are addressed to Sophie Liebknecht, wife of Karl Liebknecht. The letters are not political, and only rarely mention politics. Instead, they are personal letters between two friends, and she speaks of the natural world, and botany, which greatly interested her. This appears to be the true first of these letters. There was a Moscow printing of "Letters from Prison" in 1920, but this was of a different length, and as far as we can see, was not the letters to Sophie Liebknecht. We are unable to trace FirstSearch records of this edition. The Letters were subsequently published in English in 1923, and in French in 1933. Although we think of Soviet St Petersburg as Leningrad, in fact, the name was not changed until 1924. With Karl Liebknecht, Luxemburg founded the International Group / Spartacus League. They opposed Germany's stance in the First World War, and urged worker's strikes to undermine this. As a result, Luxemburg and Liebknecht were imprisoned in June 1916 for two and a half years. (It was during this time that these letters were written). Luxemburg continued to write and friends secretly smuggled out and illegally published her articles. Among them was "Die Russische Revolution", criticising the Bolsheviks and accusing them of seeking to impose a totalitarian single party state upon the Soviet Union. In that context, she wrote the infamous dictum "Freiheit ist immer die Freiheit des Andersdenkenden" ("Freedom is always the freedom of the one who thinks differently.") Luxemburg and Liebknecht were freed from prison in November 1918. On 1st January 1919 the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) was founded under the leadership of Liebknecht and Luxemburg. Shortly afterwards, they were both leading the Spartacist uprising (German: Spartakusaufstand), also known as the January uprising (Januaraufstand), an armed uprising that took place in Berlin from 5 to 12 January 1919. Around 150 members of the uprising died, the most prominent being Liebknecht and Luxemburg, who were arrested, tortured and shot on January 15th. Her body was dumped in the Landwehr canal. Despite her criticism of Lenin and the Bolsheviks, she swiftly became a Soviet martyr. Lenin executed four Grand Dukes in retaliation. 18×12.5 cm 71 pages. .

Ces textes ne sont pas des recettes : ils sont des leçons, tirées à chaud du combat militant, sur ce qui a conduit le socialisme dans l’impasse. Sans la sécheresse de la théorie, mais riches d’une compréhension profonde des mécanismes de notre société, les analyses de Rosa Luxemburg ont l'immense mérite d'avoir été confirmées par l'histoire du 20e siècle.
