BOUSQUET Joe (1897 - 1950)
L.A.S. "Joe Bousquet", Carcassonne Wednesday, [to Pierre NAVILLE]| 2 pages small in-4.
Beautiful letter to the director of the review La Révolution Surréaliste, to whom he sends the fragment he had spoken to him about, the first text he really attached to this movement: "While not losing sight of its mediocrity, I believe it, such as it is, has a documentary value"...
He reworked the first part with "a new and different expression". "The continuation, where I did not want, by literary honesty, to mask detestable influences, nor others that I bless, seems to me, if I refer to the memory that I kept of the crises that held me then turn around ideas blown by your group, that I gained to the reading of the exercises of ÉLUARD, but that the manifesto of A. BRETON had to impose me. Thus, the Surrealism of the last part, while being pure Surrealism, is certainly dependent on the concretion, despite everything a little romantic, of the beginning [...]. As it is, the fragment is sincere. [...] I consider it "good" because it expresses a path leading to Surrealism, and the lines of attraction are easy to underline. Paul Éluard, André Breton. Some passages want to be from A. Breton, some expressions seek the light of Éluard- I could hide this, but I prefer not to"... He asks to write his sincere opinion, and "to get from A. Breton some criticism of which I will make my profit. You think well that the Surrealist Bousquet has never had the shadow of a reader"...
