In response to Jay Anania's question regarding Pound and surrealism, I
am also very interested in the subject. He did not hesitate to call
Cavalcanti a surrealist, and to locate beginnings of the surrealist
impulse in the 13th century (though why not earlier?). A quick source
for this is EP and the Visual Arts. Then many of the statements in the
Cavalcanti essay in LE come forward as surrealist after reading the
other comments. The French surrealists in general may not have
interested him because of their psychoanalytic emphasis (as contrasted
to EP's psychological emphasis which took environment and social factors
into account). But how about the Italian and German surrealists/magic
realists who put forward social views and/or heroic postures?
Thanks all for leading to this. . .
