Description

Explore the transformative years of the Surrealist movement with this scholarly study from Routledge. This book follows the journey of Andre Breton, the leader of Surrealism, as he entered exile during the Second World War. Covering the period from 1941 to 1948, the text traces the development of his thought and poetic output during a period of global upheaval. Readers will find a deep examination of major, little-studied works produced during these years. The author demonstrates how Breton's search for a new myth for the postwar world expanded his intellectual interests into the realms of hermeticism, myth, and the occult. This study provides a clear look at how Breton's work was shaped by his profound debt to 19th-century Romanticism, including its specific literature and thought. It is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the evolution of Surrealist theory and the historical context of mid-century poetic movements.
