La Naissance de la paix de Louis Aragon Ballet radiophonique et théâtre populaire

In 1937, Aragon published a text which constitutes a paradoxical dramatic subgenre : radiophonic ballet. This was an “arrangement” for radio of La Naissance de la paix, written by Descartes. With this paradoxal project, Aragon worked with the potentialities of radiophonic theatre, a form which he saw above all as an art of the imagination in which the spectator had a central role.
