Je reprends les indications dans ce recueil, qui est assez correctement formaté, mais ne dispose hélas pas d'une table des matières interactives :
"This etext was produced from the 1915 Longmans, Green and Company edition by David Price"
Contents : The Day is Coming ; The Voice of Toil ; No Master ; All for the Cause ; The March of the Worker ; Down Among the Dead Men ; A Death Song ; May Day [1892]; May Day [1894] ; The Message of the March Wind
Footnote by David Price : "After consulting various sources it is not clear as to whether "The Message of the March Wind" was originally published with "Chants for Socialists". Chants for Socialists consists of poems that Morris wrote for various occasions and which were collected together and published by the Socialist League in 1895. If any reader has access to the original Chants, I (David Price) would be very glad if you could clear up the uncertainty on the exact contents."
Ce livre est intéressant comme document sur la facette des idées politiques "libertaires" et proudhoniennes du célèbre romancier et décorateur britannique. Ce dernier fonda la Socialist League en décembre 1884, encouragé par Friedrich Engels et Eleanor Marx. Figure de proue, pamphlétaire, orateur à travers l'Angleterre et l'Ecosse, il fonda le périodique du mouvement, dont il fut le rédacteur en chef jusqu'à sa mise en minorité par l'aile anarchiste du mouvement en 1887. Alors qu'Engels, Eleanor Marx et Edward Aveling quittaient la SL pour former la Bloomsbury Socialist Society, Morris demeura, continua à financer le périodique, mais finit par se retirer lui aussi en 1890, de plus en plus désillusionné, jusqu'à son discours final : "One Socialist Party" en janvier 1896, quelques mois avant son décès. Le premier des Chants for Socialists fut rédigé en 1883.
