Cosmology: André Breton and Astrology,
pp. 45-56. Abstract.
The influence of significant strands of late-nineteenth and early-twentieth
century esoteric thought on the surrealist movement has often been noted, though
has been little studied. Part 1 of this paper summarises current opinions on the
esoteric interests of the surrealists in general and André Breton in
particular. Part 2 includes an interview with Breton on astrology conducted by
Jean Carteret and Roger Knare in 1954 and published in the French astrology
journal L'Astrologue in 1968, reproduced
