Autorenporträt

Francisco Ferrer Guardia (1859–1909) was a Catalan anarchist. Following the declaration of martial law in 1909 during the Tragic Week, Ferrer was arrested and then executed at Montjuich Castle. He was the founder of la Escuela Moderna (the Modern School), an antiauthoritarian primary and secondary school. After Ferrer's execution, la Escuela Moderna attracted international attention, inspiring such figures as Emma Goldman, Upton Sinclair, Jack London, Edward Carpenter, Maxim Gorky, and Albert Camus.
