Yet he remains an insubstantial phenomenon, not seen since 1918, lost through historical interstices, clouded in drifting untruths. This study processes philosophical positions into a practical recovery -- from nineteenth-century Nietzsche to twentieth-century Deleuze -- with thoughts on subjectivity, metaphor, representation and multiplicity. From fresh readings and new approaches -- of Cravan's first published work as a manifesto of simulation; of contributors to his Paris review Maintenant as impostures for the Delaunays; and of the conjuring of Cravan in Picabia's elegiac film Entr'acte -- The fictions of Arthur Cravan concludes with the absent poet-boxer's eventual casting off into a Surrealist legacy, and his becoming what metaphor is: a means to represent the world. 606 $aDadaism 606 $aSurrealism 610 $aArthur Cravan. 610 $aDada. 610 $aDeleuze. 610 $aNietzsche. 610 $aSurrealism. 610 $ametaphor. 610 $amultiplicity. 610 $arepresentation. 610 $asimulation. 610 $asubjectivity. 615 0$aDadaism. 615 0$aSurrealism. 676 $a848.91409 700 $aJones$b Dafydd$f1965-$0900745 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822272503321 996 $aThe fictions of Arthur Cravan$94107709 997 $aUNINA
