In 1948 in Paris, a group of writers and thinkers would found the College of Pataphysics, still going strong today. The iconoclastic René Daumal was the first to elaborate upon Alfred Jarrys unique and humorous philosophy. Though Daumal is better known for his unfinished novel Mount Analogue and his refusal to be adopted by the Surrealist movement, this newly translated volume of writings offers a glimpse of often overlooked Daumal: Daumal the pataphysician. Pataphysical Essays collects Daumals overtly pataphysical writings from 1929 to 1941, from his landmark exposition on pataphysics and laughter to his late essay, The Pataphysics of Ghosts. Daumals Treatise on Patagrams offers the reader everything from a recipe for the disintegration of a photographer to instructions on how to drill a fount of knowledge in a public urinal. This volume also includes Daumals column for the Nouvelle Revue Française, Pataphysics This Month.
