New at MIA: https://www.marxists.org/archive/thompson-ep/1951/william-morris.htm Thanks to Paul Flewers for transcribing this. I'd be interested to hear from him and others with more knowledge of the period in general and Thompson and/or Morris in particular, what they make of this piece. On the one hand it's an inspiring appeal for mass agitation on the nonmaterial, morally and culturally uplifting features of socialism a la Morris's dreams. On the other it tries to minimize or deny Stalinist crimes, and thus makes me wonder what Thompson in his post-Stalinist days made of Morris (and whether his attachment to Morris helped him break from Stalinism). _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
