Present the surrealism of Breton as a conjunction of a “romantic marxism”, i.e, a way of thinking fascinated by certain cultural values of a pre-capitalist past that rejects the abstract rationality of modern industrial civilization, but acknowledges that nostalgia as an essential element of the struggle for the revolutionary transformation of the present time. |
