The Esoteric Secrets of Surrealism
$34.99
The surrealists were seeking out unexplored regions of the mind in a bid to recover lost “psychic” and magical powers. They employed mythology, gnostic principles, tarot, voodoo, and alchemy not simply as reference points but as significant elements of their ongoing investigations into the fundamental nature of consciousness. This book casts new light on the key figures of the movement and explores the relationship between the surrealists and Freemasons, Martinists, and the Arthurian brotherhood.

Drawing on rare primary documents, Patrick Lepetit reveals connections between surrealism, 20th century alchemy, and 19th century occultism. He explores Jewish and Christian Kabbalah and Hermeticism to show how surrealist symbology contained an initiatory dimension. He also details collaborations between surrealists André Breton, Bernard Roger, and Salvador Dalí and alchemists René Alleau, Eugène Canseliet, and Fulcanelli.
