>anarchist and fiery orator, who in the late 19th 
>century began to advocate the use of violence to 
>achieve revolutionary political and social 
>change. He is most well-known for popularizing 
>the strategy of "propaganda of the deed," which 
>promoted direct action against individuals or 
>institutions (including the use of violence) to 
>force revolutionary change and inspire further action by others.
