I'm woefully behind on keeping this site updated (until I manage to rectify that, keep abreast of mOnocle-Lash Anti-Press & the Revenant Archive for my ongoing Bouzingo & French-Romanticist related publications & research). But at long last, the Bouzingo group has an English-language collection focusing on them as a group!
This is still just a sampler – a 50-page chapbook with samplings from most of the members; but it's an appetizer for a full-sized anthology that I hope to complete in the next few years.
Choice Morsels from the Bouzingos: An Avant-Romanticist Sampler of Horror, Transgression, & Cultural Anarchy.
edited by Olchar E. Lindsann, translated by Lindsann, Jonah Durning-Hammond & pilferingapples.
A thick chapbook representing the first English-language collection of the seminal avant-garde collective (c.1830-35) that inspired Lautréamont, Dada, Surrealism, and the Situationists. Including poetry and art by fifteen members, biographies of nearly twenty, and more. This is an appetizer for a larger, perfect-bound anthology to be published several years farther on.
With samplings of writing and art by Pétrus Borel, Philothée O’Neddy, Gérard de Nerval, Jehan Du Seigneur, Théophile Gautier, Louis Boulanger, Augustus Mac-Keat, Célestin Nanteuil, Joseph Bouchardy, Alphonse Brot, Achille & Eugène Devéria, Alphonse Esquiros, Napoleon Thom, and Pierre-Roche Vigneron.
