During this journey, on May 9, 1933, Nezval had a chance encounter with two of the surrealist movement’s most influential poets—André Breton and Paul Éluard—while sitting at the Cardinal Café on the Grands Boulevards in Paris, a meeting that proved transformative. After returning home, Nezval helped found the Czech Surrealist Group, along with Karel Teige, Jindřich Stýrský, and Toyen. It became the only official group of its kind outside of France UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781951508104?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781951508104 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781951508104/original ER -
