Description

This text resulted from the author's encounter with Walter Benjamin, one of the 20th century's most influential cultural and literary critics. It analyzes the links between Breton's surrealist fusion of psychoanalysis and Marxism and Benjamin's post-Enlightenment challenge to Marxist theory. The book argues that Breton's surrealist Marxism played a formative role in shaping postwar French intellectual life and should be of relevance to the contemporary intellectual scene.
