La physique du surréalisme dans Le Vampire passif de Ghérasim Luca : remarques préliminaires}, journal = {Romanica Cracoviensia}, volume = {Volume 16 (2016)}, number = {Volume 16, Issue 4}, year = {2017}, issn = {1732-8705}, pages = {241-247},keywords = {Avant-garde; Surrealism; Gherasim Luca; André Breton; Object.}, abstract = {The purpose of this article is to analyse the notion of “the Physical World” in the André Breton essays and manifestoes of Surrealism, and its presence in the Gherasim Luca’s theory of “the Objectively Offered Object”. In the first part of the article, the author investigates the interactions between the “Surrealist object” and the “poetic image”, linked by the metaphors parallel with the language of Physics. The Surrealist image occures when combining two heterogeneous objects. It is compared to the moment of the short circuit when two “poles” of a machine are joined “with a conductor of little or no resistance”. This notion is explored in the second part of the article as a rigorous key to read The Passive Vampire of the Romanian-French Surrealist Gherasim Luca. His theory of “the Objectively Offered Object” masterminds the game of constructing the hybrid items, put together as the effect of the “objective chance”. The narrator/subject of The Passive Vampire describes his “obsessional” and “delirious” contact with certain objects “projected by desire”. With this concept Luca proves the predominant role of the “Surrealist object” in the works of the Romanian Surrealists.  }, doi = {10.4467/20843917RC.16.022.6293}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/romanica-cracoviensia/article/multiplier-des-courts-circuits-la-physique-du-surrealisme-dans-le-vampire-passif-de-gherasim-luca-remarques-preliminaires} }
