Summary: We show that it is consistent with ZF that there is a dense-in-itself compact metric space $(X,d)$ which has the countable chain condition (ccc), but $X$ is neither separable nor second countable. It is also shown that $X$ has an open dense subspace which is not paracompact and that in ZF the Principle of Dependent Choice, DC, does not imply {\it the disjoint union of metrizable spaces is normal\/}. (English)
