Fire in the water,
the air in the earth,
water in the air
and the earth into the sea.
They are not yet mad enough, they are not rushing against each other enough, and all the more furious, all the more enraged the closer and more familiar they are.
Where the Mother eats her sons,
Power eats Power:
Without war there is no stability.
Language falls, collapses, resurfaces abruptly, vertical: it decomposes and lives. Published in 1937, the New Revelations of Being act as a prophecy: “I am not dead, I am separated.” From the moment he calls himself “dead to the world,” Artaud finds himself unable to speak in his own name: a few months after publication, the long asylum stay begins, which will be a path towards the reformation of a self from scattered fragments.
This text, as legendary as it is essential, is accompanied by portraits of the author.
