2000180744Berkeley: University of California Press 2000. Hardcover. VG very minimal shelf wear like new. Gold paper boards with burgundy cloth spine and gold gilt lettering illustrated pictorial dustjacket with mult-colored lettering xii 206 pp. few bw illustrations. "The French Surrealist movement drew inspiration not only from its well-known literary and artistic origins but also from currents of psychological anxiety and rebellion running through a shadowy side of mass culture specifically in fantastic popular fiction and sensationalistic journalism. The provocative nature of this insolent mass culture resonated with the intellectual and political preoccupations of the surrealists as Robin Walz demonstrates in this fascinating study. Pulp Surrealism weaves an interpretative history of the intersection between mass print culture and surrealism reevaluating both our understanding of mass culture in early twentieth-century Paris and the revolutionary aims of the surrealist movement." - from dustjacket.

The nomadic lifestyle an essential part of everyone's past also comes under scrutiny." "Drawing on their years of experience in collecting and restoration the authors have provided an accurate account of the various weaving techniques and have clarified some methods which are often wrongly described. Separate sections are devoted to the importance of textiles in the history of mankind the materials and the sources of the dyes used to obtain the glorious colours of the past. The authors have avoided making fanciful speculations seen in some recent publications about the origins of design elements."--BOOK JACKET. P. Wilson/Palgrave Macmillan hardcover books
