A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Discover the links between European surrealism and the alchemical tradition Draws on rare primary documents to reveal the connections between surrealism, 20th century alchemy, and 19th century occultism Explores Eliphas Levi, Jewish and Christian Kabbalah, and Hermeticism to show how surrealist symbology contained an initiatory dimension or secret teaching Details collaborations between surrealists Andre Breton, Bernard Roger, and Salvador Dali and alchemists Rene Alleau, Eugene Canseliet, and FulcanelliOver the last century the symbols and strangeness of the surrealists have become world-renowned, but what isnt so well-known is the hidden relationship between surrealism and alchemy. The works of both traditions not only had a decisive influence on each other but created a unique path for alchemy to leave its underground workshops to shine in the light of popular culture.Patrick Lepetit draws on rare primary documents to reveal the connections between surrealism, 20th-century alchemy, and 19th-century occultism. He examines the hidden subtleties of surrealism to see the esoteric messages embedded in its vision of the self and cosmos. Exploring the writings of Eliphas Levi, Jewish and Christian Kabbalah, and Hermeticism, Lepetit shows how surrealist symbology contained an initiatory dimension, a secret teaching that was integral to its expression and deeply inspiring to the surrealists. Early alchemists used codes and word games, such as the perfect and divine language of the birds, to discuss the work in ways that would baffle the uninitiated and evade the suspicions of the church. Readers will learn about the artists Andre Breton, Salvador Dali, Irene Hillel-Erlanger, Bernard Roger, and Jorge Camacho and how they worked with alchemists Fulcanelli, Rene Alleau, and Eugene Canseliet.Surrealism and Operative Alchemy is a deeply researched study that situates the surrealists in their proper place as members of an age-old tradition of wisdom.
