McSweeney's Issue 73 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern)

About McSweeney's Issue 73 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern)

McSweeney's three-time National Magazine Award-winning quarterly returns with a subjective and selective group of manifestos, all from the twentieth century and onward, all roaring with outrage and plans for a better world. Featuring life- and history-changing works from André Breton, Bertrand Russell, Valerie Solanas, Huey Newton, John Lee Clark, Dadaists, Futurists, Communists, Personists, and many more past and future -ists, plus brand-new work from brilliant radical thinkers Eileen Myles and James Hannaham. Let this incendiary collection light your whole world on fire. From the introduction: We need manifestos. They are often strange, ill-considered, and regrettable. They are just as often brilliant and pivotal in changing government, art, and the direction of the human animal. But always manifestos are passionate, always they command attention and use language for perhaps its most urgent purposes--the rattling of complacent minds. Featuring: The Manifesto of Futurism (1909) by Filippo Tommaso MarinettiDada Manifesto (1918) by Tristan TzaraDadaism in Life and Art (1918) by Richard HuelsenbeckManifesto of Surrealism (1924) by André BretonManifesto (1952) by John CageThe Russell-Einstein Manifesto (1955) by Bertrand RussellPersonism: A Manifesto (1959) by Frank O'HaraSecond Declaration of Havana (1962) by Fidel CastroPlan of Delano (1966) by United Farm WorkersThe Ten-Point Program (1966) by Huey NewtonS.C.U.M.
