Description: Artaud 1937 Apocalypse Letters from Ireland August to 21 September 1937 by Antonin Artaud, Stephen Barber Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Letters from Ireland. 10 halftones Publisher Description Antonin Artauds journey to Ireland in 1937 marked an extraordinary—and apocalyptic—turning point in his life and career. After publishing the manifesto The New Revelations of Being about the "catastrophic immediate-future," Artaud abruptly left Paris for Ireland, remaining there for six weeks without money. Traveling first to the isolated island of Inishmore off Irelands western coast, then to Galway, and finally to Dublin, Artaud was eventually arrested as an undesirable alien, beaten by the police, and summarily deported back to France. On his return, he spent nine years in asylums, remaining there through the entire span of World War II. During his fateful journey, Artaud wrote letters to friends in Paris which included several "magic spells," intended to curse his enemies and protect his friends from the citys forthcoming incineration and the Antichrists appearance. (To André Breton, he wrote: "Its the Unbelievable—yes, the Unbelievable—its the Unbelievable which is the truth.") This book collects all of Artauds surviving correspondence from his time in Ireland, as well as photographs of the locations he traveled through. Featuring an afterword and notes by the books translator, Stephen Barber, this edition marks the seventieth anniversary of Artauds death. Author Biography Antonin Artaud (1895-1948) was the author of many books, most famously The Theater and Its Double. Stephen Barber is professor at the Kingston School of Art, Kingston University, London, and a visiting research fellow at the Free University Berlin and Keio University Tokyo.
