The Death of Satan and Other Mystical Writings

This unique edition contains extracts from his notebooks, reflections, poems and explorations into the fields of mysticism and magic that will fascinate not only those interested in such subjects, but all those who have read any of Artaud’s ground-breaking works and have followed his thought in other spheres.

Antonin Artaud, one of the theatrical visionaries of the twentieth century, showed a keen interest in all the forces that underlie dramatic material: myth, legend, the wisdom of the ancients, the classical and pre-classical exploration of nature, the mind and the occult. This prompted him to investigate the most diverse sources of lore, such as Greek mythology, the I Ching, Christian ritual, astrology, the tarot and the civilizations of India and Mexico.

This volume contains extracts from his notebooks, reflections, poems and explorations into the fields of mysticism and magic that will fascinate not only those interested in such subjects, but all those who have read any of Artaud’s ground-breaking works and have followed his thought in other spheres.
