Sacred Surrealism, Dissidence and International Avant-Garde Prose - Brough-Evans, Vivienne

Shedding new light on the literary oeuvre of non-French writers who worked both within and against a Surrealist framework, this book proposes a new way of re-evaluating aspects of international Surrealism by means of the category of divin fou, and consequently deploys theories of sacred ecstasy as developed by the College de Sociologie.
