Book Description
Tracing the movement from its origins in the 1920s to its decline in the 1950s and 1960s, Durozoi tells the history of Surrealism through its activities, publications, and reviews, demonstrating its close ties to some of the most explosive political, as well as creative, debates of the twentieth century. Unlike other histories, which focus mainly on the pre-World War II years of the movement in Paris, Durozoi covers both a wider chronological and geographic range, treating in detail the postwar years and Surrealism's colonization of Latin America, the United States, Japan, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Italy, and North Africa. Drawing on documentary and visual evidence--including 1,000 photos, many of them in color--he illuminates all the intellectual and artistic aspects of the movement, from literature and philosophy to painting, photography, and film. All the Surrealist stars and their most important works are here--Aragon, Borges, Breton, Buñuel, Cocteau, Crevel, Dalí, Desnos, Ernst, Man Ray, Soupault, and many more--for all of whom Durozoi has provided brief biographical notes in addition to featuring them in the main text.

Book Description
CETTE ETUDE A POUR OBJECTIF D'ANALYSER L'ENGAGEMENT POLITIQUE D'UNE AVANT-GARDE ARTISTIQUE ET LITTERAIRE, LE SURREALISME. LA DEMARCHE SURREALISTE EST EN SOI POLITIQUE, LEUR VOLONTE DE "TRANSFORMER LE MONDE" ET DE "CHANGE LA VIE" SUPPOSE UNE ESTHETIQUE ET UNE ETHIQUE REVOLUTIONNAIRES QUI LES ORIENTENT DU COTE DES MOUVEMENTS POLITIQUES REVOLUTIONNAIRES. LES DEBUTS DU SURREALISME SONT MARQUES PAR UNE INFLUENCE LIBERTAIRE : LA REVOLTE INDIVIDUELLE EST LE FERMENT CONTESTATAIRE DU MOUVEMENT. LEUR POLITISATION AU MILIEU DES ANNEES VINGT, QUI SE TRADUIT PAR UN ENGAGEMENT AUX COTES DU PARTI COMMUNISTE, PEUT S'ANALYSER SOUS L'ANGLE D'UNE NOUVELLE PROBLEMATIQUE : LES SURREALISTES ENTENDENT PARTICIPER A L'ELABORATION DE LA LIGNE CULTURELLE DU PARTI CUMMUNISTE ET LUTTER POUR OBTENIR LA RECONNAISSANCE DU SURREALISME COMME ESTHETIQUE REVOLUTIONNAIRE. L'ECHEC DE CET ENGAGEMENT NE SIGNIFIE PAS, APRES LA SECONDE GUERRE MONDIALE, LA FIN DE LEUR ENGAGEMENT POLITIQUE. LE SOUTIEN DES SURREALISTES AUX MOUVEMENTS TROTSKYSTE PUIS ANARCHISTE, LEURMOBILISATION A L'OCCASION D'EVENEMENTS TELS QUE LA GUERRE D'ESPAGNE, LE MOUVEMENT DE "CITOYENS DU MONDE", LA GUERRE D'ALGERIE OU ENCORE LA LUTTE EN FAVEUR DES OBJECTEURS DE CONSCIENCE FONT DE CES ANNEES UNE PERIODE POLITIQUEMENT TRES ACTIVE.

Book Description
Louis Janover, né en 1937, raconte le surréalisme de l'intérieur. Mais il a créé la surprise et cassé les idées reçues en écrivant dans ses essais qu'une différence radicale existe entre ce que voulaient les surréalistes, c'est-à-dire une révolution, qui aurait changé le monde, et l'effet de leur entreprise qui fut de changer l'aspect de l'art de ce monde.

Book Description
De tous les livres que Louis Janover a consacres au surrealisme, La revolution surrealiste apparait tel un livre-phare, celui qui eclaire l'evenement surrealiste et le fait rayonner, en souvenir de ces jeunes revoltes qui revaient de mettre l'histoire a l'envers. These a contre-pente : cette revolution est un phenomene social-historique total. Or, nos contemporains, devenus incapables de percevoir le phenomene dans sa profondeur, n'accueillent le surrealisme que par ses effets, la marque dont il impregne notre culture. D'ou la tendance sterile qui reduit l'evenement surrealiste a l'apparition d'un nouveau mouvement litteraire et a une revolution limitee au seul champ esthetique. C'est pourquoi Louis Janover rejette ces reductions qui sont autant de domestications et d'occultations. Dans un prologue inedit, " Le surrealisme a la recherche des pas perdus ", il se donne pour objet la revolution surrealiste retrouvee, prise dans un entrelacs entre deux imperatifs : selon Andre Breton, celui de Marx - transformer le monde - et celui de Rimbaud - changer la vie. Noyau insecable qui se tient au cur de la revolution surrealiste, mais qui s'est malencontreusement dissocie lorsqu'on est passe de la revolution a la subversion, a ce qu'on appelle couramment " le surrealisme ". Quand certaines et certains ont pretendu changer " leur " vie sans transformer le monde. On mesure ici l'importance de la demarche de Louis Janover. Il ouvre le chemin, non de la conservation, mais de la reactivation, la revolution surrealiste ressuscitee - la ou le recommencement se metamorphose soudain en Commencement.

Book Description
Despite surrealism's celebration of the subconscious and eschewal of reason, the movement was nevertheless concerned with definitions. Andre Breton included a dictionary-style entry for surrealisme in his 1924 Manifeste du surrealisme and later explored juxtapositions of the absurd and the mundane in the 1938 Dictionnaire abrege du surrealisme. To the mountain of literature that seeks to organize the far-reaching intellectual movement, Aspley (honorary fellow, Univ. of Edinburgh) adds this handy volume that organizes the breadth of surrealism into concise entries on artists, writers, artworks, and themes. A chronology highlights events that sparked the surrealist imagination, activities of formal surrealist groups, and exhibitions. An introductory essay and extensive bibliography are included. One of the few English-language reference sources about surrealism published in the last decade, Aspley's dictionary is useful for quick access to key terms and biographies. For a book devoted to a movement characterized by arresting visual imagery, the lack of illustrations is annoying. Even Rene Passeron's 1978 Phaidon Encyclopedia of Surrealism (CH, May'79) reprints artworks in color. For a richly illustrated and comprehensive history, see Gerard Durozi's History of the Surrealist Movement (CH, Nov'02, 40-1316). Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates through graduate students. Lower-division Undergraduates; Upper-division Undergraduates; Graduate Students. Reviewed by A. H. Simmons.
