Charles Bufe, better known as Chaz Bufe, is a contemporary American anarchist author. Bufe primarily writes on the problems faced by the modern anarchist movement (as in his pamphlet "Listen, Anarchist!"), and also on atheism, music theory and intentional community. ==Life== After receiving a masters in music from the University of California (Berkeley) , Bufe started See Sharp Press in 1984 and then relocated to Tucson, Arizona. Some See Sharp publications are reprints of classical anarchist texts, others are by Bufe himself, mostly music instruction/reference works and atheist titles, including a critique of Alcoholics Anonymous and two pamphlets on ideas about a future anarchist or utopian society. One was "A Future Worth Living: Thoughts on Getting There" (1998), which reveals the influence of the German New Age commune ZEGG. Bufe returned to the utopian theme in "Design Your Own Utopia" (2004), co-authored by "Doctress Neutopia" (Libby Hubbard, from the ZEGG commune) which mostly consisted of a questionnaire addressed to would-be utopians. Bufe has written several hundred aphorisms under the pseudonym "Robert Tefton" which appear in an anthology he edited, "The Heretics's Handbook of Quotations" (self-published in 1998, and in an expanded edition in 2001). Its model is "The Devil's Dictionary" by Ambrose Bierce. Bufe has released a volume, ''The Devil's Dictionaries'' consisting of quotations by Bierce and himself. The latter book has been referenced by IslamOnline, recommended by ''Cape Cod Times''〔 〕 and has earned him the title "the Ambrose Bierce of our time" from AlterNet.〔 〕〔 〕 Bufe is also a musician, and author of ''An Understandable Guide to Music Theory'', now in its third edition.〔 〕 He translated the only English-language collection of the writings of Ricardo Flores Magón – ''Flores Magón Dreams of Freedom: A Ricardo Flores Magón Reader'' – and translated the Spanish language book ''Cuban Anarchism: The History of a Movement'' by Frank Fernández (writer) into English as well as ''Venezuela: Revolution as Spectacle'', by Rafael Uzcategui. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chaz Bufe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
