About This Item
[8] pp. chiefly illustrated. "Special souvenir revolutionary festival brochure," being a mixture of text, cut-ups, and détournée comic strips that refer to student protests in 1968 at the Essex University, Liverpool University, and the London School of Economics. 4to. Near fine. folded. [1253]
According to an interview with T.J. Clark (Power to the People, 2013) "In 1968 Essex University hosted a dreadful "revolutionary festival" with Godard and co. in attendance. A group of naysayers produced something called the Manifesto of Rationalism in hopes of spoiling the party, and I remember that my contribution was a strip cartoon beginning with a quote from Lewis Namier: 'Liberty is the fruit of slow growth in a stable society.'" Clark goes on to express sincere hope that the item won't be recovered for future scholars to examine. So much for that! As of May 2021, we can locate only one other holding in North America.
