Description - Bataille by Carolyn Bailey Gill
Bataille's writings have fascinated many readers, enmeshed as they are with the themes of sex and death. His emotive discourse of excess, transgression, sacrifice and the sacred has had a profound and notable influence on thinkers such as Foucault, Derrida and Kristeva. This book examines the continuing power and influence of his work. The full extent of Bataille's subversive and influential writings has only been made available to an English-speaking audience in recent years. By bringing together international specialists on Bataille from philosophy and literature to art history, this collection is able to explore the many facets of his writings.
