So dangerous was Dimech con- sidered to the Maltese and colo- nial establishments. that he was denied return to Malta back to his wife and three children, the eldest passing away during his absence. His biographer, the Domini- can friar Mark Montebello, kept Dimech's memory alive and kicking. But the contrast in the commemoration of Queen Eliza- beth's consort, and the collective forgetfulness of the 100th anni- versary from Dimech's death, is a sad marker for a country which has forgotten Dimech. "Not one single event, let alone an official one, was held to mark Dimech's anniversary, while var- ious activities, even official ones honoured the passing of the Brit- ish queen's consort," Montebello wryly remarks. As the Maltese press hailed the passing of a "a dear friend of Malta" in a bid to evoke the royal connection to the island, Dimech was relegated to obscurity. "This is how a giant like Dimech is still treated by the present generation," Montebello says. It's an episode that represents a "paradigm", Montebello says: a narrative in which Dimech is periodically, and systematically excluded, even ejected from his- tory, despite still haunting the establishment from the margin- alized sidelines. "Perhaps Dimech is most ex- alted when put down. For he re- mains the eternal foe of the pre- tentious as much as the friend of the lowly; the leader of fifth columnists. This is how Dimech must live on. Not watered-down or strewn on the cheap. He is too good for that. "He remains forever the un- adulterated voice of the people who are excluded from history, the anonymous and the dispos- sessed. Lip-service is not Di- mech's best armour, and never will be, neither to give it nor to receive it," an impassioned Mon- tebello told MaltaToday. In a country which reveres pow- er and salutes success in terms of money, status and votes, Manwel Dimech occupies a rare niche: a penniless activist and journalist who spoke truth to power, fought for change and ideals, eluded the great partisan split of his time (that between pro Italian and pro English parties) but still rat- tled the status quo by founding the popular Maltese newspaper il-Bandiera tal-Maltin, and cul- tivating an ephemeral following among the working class. Yet he was excommunicated from the Catholic Church, pelted with stones and violently ejected from a society which rejected him be- fore rediscovering him again, decades after his exile, and again through the next century. A self-thought intellectual, he hailed from an impoverished and troubled childhood, which led him to petty crime and pris- on. Way ahead of his time, Di- mech was more in tune with continental political thinking than the folk culture he resent- ed – rather than celebrating the simplistic ways of the masses, so romanticised by religious and professional elites, he sought the emancipation of workers from their darkness. And this yearn- ing for modernity and emanci- Dimech 100 years of amnesia, and defiance 100 years after Dimech's death in exile in Egypt, JAMES DEBONO reaximes his legacy in a country that was more willing to commemorate Prince Philip's passing than the cruel repudiation of Malta's first true democrat
