Emerging from the disruption of the First World War, surrealism
confronted the resulting 'crisis of consciousness' in a way that
was arguably more profound than any other cultural movement of the
time. The past few decades have seen an expansion of interest in
surrealist writers, whose contribution to the history of ideas in
the twentieth-century is only now being recognised. Surrealism: Key
Concepts is the first book in English to present an overview of
surrealism through the central ideas motivating the popular
movement. An international team of contributors provide an
accessible examination of the key concepts, emphasising their
relevance to current debates in social and cultural theory. This
book will be an invaluable guide for students studying a range of
disciplines, including Philosophy, Anthropology, Sociology and
Cultural Studies, and anyone who wishes to engage critically with
surrealism for the first time. Contributors: Dawn Ades, Joyce
Cheng, Jonathan P. Eburne, Krzysztof Fijalkowski, Guy Girard,
Raihan Kadri, Michael Loewy, Jean-Michel Rabate, Michael
Richardson, Donna Roberts, Bertrand Schmitt, Georges Sebbag,
Raymond Spiteri, and Michael Stone-Richards.
