This study examines Anna Pammrová’s articles in two anarchist magazines (Zádruha, Mladý průkopník) and in the women’s magazine Vesna. Pammrová (1860–1945) was a feminist and theosophist who thought of femininity as a rational principle linked to eternal cosmic forces. She rejected all public institutions and promoted living independently of bourgeois civilization. In the three magazines mentioned above, she writes on problems faced by the proletariat, criticising capitalism, especially wage labour, and advocating instead for an ideal model of ‘self-aware labour’. She proposes moreover the model of a free society that functions as an autonomous community in harmony with spiritual forces. In her conception, the commune is based on emancipated and harmonious life — emancipated in the sense that each member of the commune would remain self-aware, directly identifying with every activity he or she engages in. Personal freedom is not enough; one must live in accordance with every other living thing, and the suffering of another (human or non-human) negatively influences one’s own mind. This study explores these issues and presents Pammrová’s ideas in the context of her feminism and Czech anarchism of the pre-WWI period.
