In her talk, Delia Ungureanu will trace the hidden legacy of surrealism in world fiction and contemporary film, and she will argue how Proust’s and Woolf’s revolutionizing understanding of time representation and the psychological self are developed within a new version of realism that is very close to the surrealists’ and which she will call oneiric realism. She will examine Stephen Daldry’s The Hours and Raúl Ruiz’s Le Temps retrouvé which take Proust’s and Woolf’s concept of time and the psychological representation of the self to a whole new level through the use of musical and cinematic devices.
