| Research Abstract |
Firstly, we analyzed Breton's original form of idealism. After that we showed as follows:what reunited Breton, Tzara and Bataille, especially as the fascism raised his head, was their different types of idealism; Breton and Bataille's idealism is one of the important factors that would show their interests in common after the Second World War (pursuit of the sacred, interests in spiritualism, etc.). We also examined the relation between ideology and literary aspects (style, choice of genre), in the case of Aragon and Breton in the nineteen-forties.
