Essential Writings

Herausgeber: Richardson, Michael

Beschreibung

Georges Bataille's work is an essential reference in any discussion of modernity and postmodernity. An important influence on Foucault, Derrida and post-structuralism, Bataille is a thinker of key significance. This volume makes a selection from the entire body of his academic work, showing how his thinking on sacrifice, eroticism, taboo and transgression, and the nature of identity inform his social theory. Bataille - Essential Writings will be the standard introductory text to this profound and difficult thinker.

Autor

I would consider myself a long-time student of humanity. These are collections of ideas I have worked on for decades. My writing misadventures started in my youth, between the ages of 16 and 26. I had to have several surgeries that kept me convalescing with nothing else to do. I began to write down my ideas and expand my universe to the story you find before you.
