October 4 marks the birthday of Japanese writer Jun Tsuji, born in 1884. Remembered as a Dadaist, nihilist, Epicurean and shakuhachi musician, Tsuji was shaped early in life by Tolstoy, the socialist anarchism of Kōtoku Shūsui, and the literature of Oscar Wilde.

Why now: The anniversary of his birth prompted labor history writers and readers to revisit his life and ideas.
