Description

Surrealism: Key Concepts by Krzysztof Fijalkowski provides an accessible overview of the central ideas motivating the popular movement. 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. This book is an invaluable guide for students studying Philosophy, Anthropology, Sociology and Cultural Studies, as well as anyone looking to engage critically with surrealism. An international team of contributors provide an examination of key concepts, highlighting their relevance to current debates in social and cultural theory. Suitable for those new to surrealism or seeking a deeper understanding of its ideas, this book offers a comprehensive introduction to the subject.
