Abstract
Abstract Widely considered to be the best Surrealist poet writing in Catalan, J. V. Foix incorporated a number of principles associated with Sigmund Freud into his imaginative works, in which an assortment of dream mechanisms expressed his unconscious desires, fears, thoughts, and motivations. By means of surprising associations and astonishing encounters, Foix managed to transform his everyday surroundings into a magical universe characterized by whimsical juxtapositions, impossible encounters, and unexpected discoveries. Extending from the beginning to the end of his long and distinguished career, the four poems that I have chosen to examine illustrate the characteristic manner in which he juxtaposed spatial and temporal distortions in the process of crafting his unforgettable dream-works.
