Georges Brunet

Georges Brunet, nicknamed "La Violette", (1868-1908), was a French carpenter and anarchist. He is known, among other things, for being one of the accused in the Trial of the Thirty.

A figure in the anarchist movement in France of the 1890s, Brunet became a speaker at several anarchist meetings. There, he advocated for the use of syndicalism and opposed the practices of his illegalist companions.

Targeted by the Trial of the Thirty, he defended himself by stating that he had never supported illegalist theories and was acquitted. He subsequently became involved in the Dreyfus affair and continued his syndicalist activities. Provided by Wikipedia
