- The Language of Surrealism is a single-authored book, presenting the results of research and scholarship collected over 20 years. It includes primary sources from two previously unpublished manuscripts in private archives (work by Emmy Bridgwater, and surrealist games), and Stockwell’s new translations of several surrealist texts by Robert Desnos, Paul Eluard / Max Ernst, Joan Miro, Rene Magritte, and Tristan Tzara. It aims to offer the first full considered application of modern linguistics to surrealist writing and reading, and to contribute to literary scholarship on surrealism in English as well as advancing cognitive poetic theory.
