The Letters of Sacco and Vanzetti<br />

Foreword by Bruce Watson<br />

Introduction by Richard Polenberg<br />

Edited by Gardner Jackson and<br />

Marion D. Frankfurter<br />

First published in 1928, The Letters of<br />

Sacco and Vanzetti represents one of the<br />

great personal documents of the twentieth<br />

century: a volume of primary source<br />

material as famous for the splendor of<br />

its impassioned prose as for the brilliant<br />

light it sheds on the characters of the<br />

two dedicated anarchists—executed for<br />

the holdup murder of two guards—who<br />

became the focus of worldwide attention.<br />

Venus in Furs<br />

Translated with Notes by Joachim<br />

Neugroschel with an Introduction by<br />

Larry Wolff<br />

First published in 1870, Venus in Furs<br />

earned its author a degree of immortality<br />

when the word “masochism”—derived<br />

from his name—entered the psychiatric<br />

lexicon. The term remains a classic literary<br />

statement on sexual submission and<br />

control.<br />
