Concentrating on the movement's theory and practice, this extraordinarily broad-ranging book documents the spread of Surrealism throughout the western hemisphere and examines keys texts, critical responses, and significant writers. The latter include three extraordinarily talented individuals who were eventually awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature (Andre Breton, Pablo Neruda, and Octavio Paz). Like their Surrealist colleagues, they strove to free human beings from their unconscious chains so that they could realize their true potential. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eOne Hundred Years of Surrealist Poetry\u003c\/i\u003e explores not only the birth but also the ongoing life of a major literary movement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Willard Bohn\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501393723\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501393723\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.69d","brand":"Willard Bohn","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071536951551,"sku":"9781501393723","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e695196b-2544-4fcc-ae3d-720949c30d69.jpg?v=1685436688","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/one-hundred-years-of-surrealist-willard-bohn-9781501393723","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
