Most of the books in Hans Toch’s library are heavily marked up. This makes them worthless monetarily, but a treasure to see what he considered significant in the many classics in his library, including many written by his former students.

PRIMITIVE REBELS Studies in Archaic Forms of Social Movement in the 19th and 20th Centuries

MAY CONTAIN MARKUP

By E. J. HOBSBAWM

"Primitive Rebels: Studies in Archaic Forms of Social Movement in the 19th and 20th Centuries delves into the often overlooked yet powerful dynamics of social movements that emerged amidst the tumultuous periods of the 19th and 20th centuries. In this insightful collection, the author explores the unique characteristics of these 'primitive rebels'—individuals and groups who dared to challenge established structures and ideologies through unconventional means.

Through meticulous research and engaging narratives, the book sheds light on the diverse expressions of resistance seen in various societies and contexts. From peasant uprisings to religious sects, each case study offers valuable insights into the motivations, strategies, and impacts of these archaic forms of social movement.

Offering a fresh perspective on historical dissent and social change, Primitive Rebels is a thought-provoking read that invites readers to reconsider the role of 'primitive' or unconventional movements in shaping the course of history."
