内容説明・目次
内容説明
"The Lost Steps" ("Les Pas perdus") is Andre Breton's first collection of critical and polemical essays. Composed between 1917 and 1923, these pieces trace his evolution during the years when he was emerging as a central figure in French (and European) intellectual life. They chronicle his tumultuous passage through the Dada movement, proclaim his explosive views on Modernism and its heroes, and herald the emergence of Surrealism itself. Along the way, we are given Breton's serious commentaries on his Modernist predecessors, Guillaume Apollinaire and Alfred Jarry, followed by his not-so-serious Dada manifestoes. Also included are portraits of Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, and Breton's mysterious friend Jacques Vache, as well as a crisis-by-crisis account of his dealing with Dada's leader, Tristan Tzara. Finally, Breton offers a first glimpse of Surrealism, the movement that was forever after identified with his name and that stands as a defining force in twentieth-century aesthetics. Mark Polizzotti, editorial director of David R. Godine, Publisher, is the author of "Revolution of the Mind: The Life of Andre Breton".
He is also the translator of Jean Echenoz's "Double Jeopardy" (Nebraska 1994) and "Cherokee" (Nebraska 1994) and of Andre Breton's "Conversations: The Autobiography of Surrealism". Mary Ann Caws is Distinguished Professor of French at Hunter College and at the City University of New York. Her most recent work is "Robert Motherwell: What Art Holds". She is the translator of Andre Breton's "Mad Love" (Nebraska 1987) and "Communicating Vessels" (Nebraska 1990).
