Breton was obviously the driving force behind surrealism, and he ran the movement in a dictatorial style, even expelling several of its members in the Second Manifesto of Surrealism in 1929. Several of these ex-members started adhering to Georges Bataille's journal Documents.
Most sources state that Breton called Bataille an "excrement-philosopher" (philosophe-excrément) in the Second Surrealist Manifesto, but in reality these words are nowhere to be found in that document.
