After Bataille - Sacrifice, Exposure, Community (Hardcover)

Author of the obscene narrative Story of the Eye and of works of heretical philosophy such as Inner Experience, Georges Bataille (1897-1962) is one of the most powerful and secretly influential French thinkers of the last century, his work driven by a compulsion to relate an experience which exceeds the limits of human communication. After Bataille traces this compulsion across different figures in Bataille's thought, from an obsession with the thematics and the event of sacrifice, through the exposure of being and of the subject, to the necessary relation to others in friendship and in community.
