"This volume - the first reference book devoted to the surrealist work of the artist - analyses Picasso's creative activity during and alongside the surrealist movement. Thematic texts reveal the extraordinary wealth of Picasso's oeuvre during this time, and a dictionary of poetic imagery explores the various possibilities of meaning in his writing. Finally, a detailed chronology places this crucial period within its intellectual and historical context."--BOOK JACKET.
