Much loved in his own era, William Morris has inspired Prime
Ministers (Clement Attlee), artists and eco-socialists (John
Bellamy Foster). Ferociously opposed to capitalism and inequality,
he sought to embrace humanity with passion, commitment, energy and
belief working vigorously for a free, green and non-hierarchical
future. All this - with his distrust of conventional politicians
and with his belief that people can and must change the world -
resonates in social movement politics today. This book offers a
fresh perspective: a transhistorical approach presenting Morris's
libertarian politics through exploring his intellectual and
cultural heritage and considering practical-political issues,
actions and aims. Today we see how class intersects with gender,
politics with technology and economics, ecology with industry and
economics, art with history. John Blewitt shows how these - and
more - intersect with each other and with power, domination,
resistance, emergence and transcendence. Morris helps us grapple
with these challenges offering an ethics and a politics embracing
socialism, communism, anarchism and feminism. Hark the rolling of
the thunder! Lo the sun! and lo thereunder Riseth wrath, and hope,
and wonder, And the host comes marching on.
