Enrico Arrigoni was an anarchist-individualist author who lived in the U.S. illegally from 1924 until his death in 1986, and who wrote under a number of pseudonyms, including Frank Brand (see Avrich, Anarchist Voices, for a lengthy interview) and Harry Goni (a version of "Arrigoni"). He lived in and published from the Bronx. He wrote in Spanish as well as English. He considered communists to be a greater menace to human liberty than any other political group.

According to Arrigoni, when interviewed by Paul Avrich, he founded Eresia in 1928 as an "eclectic journal with a strong individualist bias." It had a run of about 2,000 copies for each issue.

Ugo Fedeli, one of his comrades in a factory in Milan whom Arrigoni identifies as an anarchist-communist, was one of its contributors, as was Francesco Ghezzi, who sent dispatches from Russia for publication in the magazine. Fedeli's biography of Giuseppe Ciancabilla is also in the Collection. The drawings were done by "another bricklayer" friend of Arrigoni.
