Book NF: clean, square, tight, unmarked./DJ VG+: clean, not clipped.. 8vo 211pp. from front flap: "'Surrealism', wrote Georges Bataille in 1945, 'has from the start given consistency to a "morality of revolt" and its most important contribution-- important perhaps even in the political realm-- is to have remained, in matters of morality, a revolution.' For Bataille, 'the absence of myth' had itself become the myth of the modern age. In a world that had 'lost the secret of its cohesion', Bataille saw surrealism as both a symptom and the beginning of an attempt to address this loss. His writings on this theme--which he had hoped to assemble into a book and which are published here for the first time--mostly date from the immediate postwar period, and are the result of profound reflection in the wake of World War Two." #02382.
