[edit] Surrealism

Penelope Rosemont is part of the surrealist movement, this can not be denied, please stop reverting this. Google for +"Penelope Rosemont" +"Andre Breton" -Wikipedia -encyclopedia and there will be lots of articles backing this up. I personally think that enough external evidence suggests that she was in Paris around 1966-67 and was part of the surrealist movement there. If that is indeed the case, then she MUST have met Andre Breton at some point. In any case, the open letter to surrealists in the United States written BY Andre Breton is prefaced with "Dear Franklin and Penelope Rosemont" I don't know how much more clear this must be to prove the Mr. Breton had contact with the Rosemonts. I personally would not say "welcomed by" because that is rather unprovable, but there is linkage, and she is definitely a surrealist. Removing that is advocating an un-factual POV. -Vina 21:54, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Vina, all your above information is wrong. Penelope Rosemont is inspired by surrealism. She never met Andre Breton, no matter how many bogus, "articles" you claim to show proof, there is no proof of their meeting. The open letter you refer to above is false information.Classicjupiter2 00:35, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
What is your basis of this claim that it's "false information" other than your well-documented anti-surrealism and dislike of the Surrealist Movement in the United States in particular? Oh, I know, you will feign ignorance of what capital letters mean, and say that you can't tell the difference between the surrealist movement in the United States and The Surrealist Movement in the United States, but the question still stands. --Daniel C.

Its false information. There was a May 1967 open letter to the Rosemonts, but there is no handwritten letter by Breton (in Breton's handwriting) to the Rosemonts that exists. If it does, show me.Classicjupiter2 22:40, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
