This scholarly volume explores the intersection of Surrealism and ecology, examining how the Surrealist movement engaged with natural phenomena, ecological thought, and the boundaries between nature and human culture. Divided into three parts, the book addresses themes such as the poetic imagination, unsettling boundaries, and moving beyond humanism. Contributions analyze works by key figures like Antonin Artaud, Aimé and Suzanne Césaire, Max Ernst, and Dorothea Tanning, among others, and discuss topics ranging from ecopoetics and colonial trauma to the Anthropocene and surrealist visual culture. The collection highlights the movement's progressive political and ethical positioning, its engagement with plural identities, and its critique of colonial and rationalist paradigms.
