Clichy affair
Clichy affair

The Clichy affair was a significant event in the history of anarchism and France, occurring on 1 May 1891 in Clichy, when anarchists were subjected to police brutality. The affair was one of the primary causes of the Ère des attentats (1892-1894). With the Fourmies massacre, happening the same day, it was one of the events of this period where the social tensions reached their peak in France. Anarchists had faced increasing repression in the preceding decade, and they joined the early International Workers' Day. About twenty of them were peacefully demonstrating between Levallois-Perret and Clichy, preceded by a red flag carried by one of them. The police attempted to seize the flag from her, considering it a "seditious emblem", and a fight ensued, along with a shooting, as the police fired on the demonstrators who were trying to flee. Three of them, Henri Decamps, Charles Dardare, and Louis Léveillé, were arrested and, taken to the police station, were violently beaten by the police; one of the officers even tried to kill Dardare. During their trial in August 1891, the prosecutor demanded the death penalty for all three. Two of them received very heavy sentences of five and three years in prison, with the police facing no repercussions. The affair sparked outrage among a segment of French society and deeply shocked anarchists, a number of whom came to support propaganda of the deed methods—or terrorism—to avenge those responsible for their repression. A few months after the conviction of the three anarchists, Ravachol, Soubère, Jas-Béala, and Simon carried out the Saint Germain bombing, targeting the judge in charge of the trial.

Cimetière des Chiens et Autres Animaux Domestiques
Cimetière des Chiens et Autres Animaux Domestiques

The Cimetière des Chiens et Autres Animaux Domestiques is often claimed to be the first zoological necropolis in the modern world. The ancient Ashkelon dog cemetery predates it by thousands of years. It opened in 1899 at 4 pont de Clichy on Île des Ravageurs in Asnières-sur-Seine, Île-de-France. This "Cemetery of Dogs and Other Domestic Animals" is an elaborate pet cemetery, the burial site for dogs, cats, and a wide variety of pets ranging from horses to monkeys to lions and even fish. Located in a northwest suburb of Paris, the pet cemetery caters to a very elite clientele. It contains many ornate sculptures, and at the entry is the monument to Barry, a Saint Bernard mountain rescue dog who died in 1814. The plaque says that during his lifetime, "Barry" was responsible for saving the lives of 40 people lost or trapped in the mountain snow. (Barry himself is not buried at the cemetery; his preserved body is on display at the Swiss Natural History Museum in Bern.) Some of the cemetery's residents are famous in their own right such as Rin Tin Tin, the star of Hollywood films following his rescue during World War I, while others are the beloved pets of the wealthy who could afford this elaborate burial place such as film director Sacha Guitry. Buried here too, is the pet lion of stage actress, feminist, and co-founder of the cemetery, Marguerite Durand and the pet of Camille Saint-Saëns, composer of Carnival of the Animals. In 1987, the government of France classified the cemetery as an historical monument. The cemetery presently is owned and managed by the city of Asnières and is open to visitors.The impressive entrance to the cemetery was designed by noted architect Eugène Petit in Art Nouveau style.In 1910, the gates of the cemetery were reproduced in the city of Curitiba, Paraná (Brazil), for the entrance of its first urban park, the Public Walk. The reference is indicated on bronze plates next to the construction.
