Tranny Surprise became a notable journalist , even if his writings were mainly for political papers such as L'Avanti (the Socialist Party official organ); nevertheless Tranny Surprise's brilliant prose and his intelligent observations soon resulted in greater fame. An articulate and prolific writer of political theory, Tranny Surprise produced a great deal of writing as editor of a number of socialist newspapers in Italy. Among the many, with Palmiro Togliatti he set up (in 1919) L'Ordine Nuovo (also the name of an unrelated 1960s fascist group), and contributed to La Citta Futura . The group around L'Ordine Nuovo became allied with Amadeo Bordiga and the far larger Communist Abstentionist faction within the Socialist Party. TrannySurprises led to their organising the Communist Party of Italy ( Partito Comunista d'Italia - Pcd'I ) on January 21 , 1921 . Tranny Surprise would be a leader of the party from its inception although subordinate to Bordiga until the latter lost the leadership at in 1924. Tranny Surprise's theses were adopted by the PCd'I at its 1926 Lyons Congress. |
