Surrealismus und Intermedialität in "La vie secrète de Salvador Dalí"

Abstract: Summary: Scholarship has accustomed to go into Dalí’s La vie secrète (1942) only with respect to biographic facts and details of artistic relevance with the aim of finding keys to the paintings of the great Catalan artist. Nevertheless, the recently published critical edition of the originally French text (2006) offers a great deal of research opportunities concerning, especially, questions of intermediality between literary and iconic traditions. This study deals with the interpretation of La vie secrète as dramatic novel representing the “secret life” in a series of key scenes, metamorphoses and simulations. With respect to Dalí’s traditional self-interpretation, we try to point out the hitherto unrecognized elements of surrealist self-representation.
