Description

His is a journey marked by the questioning of experience itself, until what is reached is sovereign laughter, non-knowledge, and a Presence in no way distinct from Absence, where "The mind moves in a strange world where anguish and ecstasy coexist."

I heard somewhere that after reading The Gay Science, Bataille felt at a loss. How could he write anything that Nietzsche had not already written? I often feel that way reading Bataille himself.
[Edição francesa da coleção TEL Gallimard, 1978].

É realmente impressionante a capacidade de um homem da primeira metade do século XX na casa dos seus 30 anos de soar quase tão edgy quanto um pré-adolescente de 13 anos que escreve letras de Nine Inch Nails no caderno da escola. Apesar disso, eu aprecio por vezes a violência poética de Bataille (v. p. ex. os primeiros parágrafos de "O Azul do Céu")

As conversas sobre os santos católicos, tortura chinesa e êxtase (quase tudo da terceira parte) foram interessantes, mas a nível teórico eu realmente não consigo levar nada aqui muito a sério. Se você tiver qualquer interesse, basta apenas a seção "O Labirinto" e se você se sentir mais afim o resto da terceira parte assim show more como a quarta parte (até a segunda digressão) podem lhe ser agradáveis.

Como o autor, eu me sinto demasiado tomado por uma angústia sufocante (e por uma enorme dor de cabeça) após encarar esse livro e portanto me sinto forçado a acabar essa resenha por aqui até retornar do meu estado de êxtase e escrever mais meio parágrafo e parar de novo. Eu espero jamais ter que olhar o vazio nesse céu novamente.

E - por Deus! - não se aproxime d'O Suplício.

Georges Bataille was a French poet, novelist, and philosopher. He was born in Billon, Puy-de-Dome, in central France on September 10, 1897. His father was already blind and paralyzed from syphilis when Bataille was born. In 1915, Bataille's father died, his mind destroyed by his illness. The death marked his son for life. While working at the show more Bibliotheque National in Paris during the 1920s, Bataille underwent psychoanalysis and became involved with some of the intellectuals in the Surrealist movement, from whom he learned the concept of incongruous imagery in art. In 1946 he founded the journal Critique, which published the early work of some of his contemporaries in French intellectual life, including Roland Barthes and Jacques Derrida. Bataille believed that in the darkest moments of human existence-in orgiastic sex and terrible death-lay ultimate reality. By observing them and even by experiencing them, actually in sex and vicariously in death, he felt that one could come as close as possible to fully experiencing life in all its dimensions. Bataille's works include The Naked Beast at Heaven's Gate (1956), A Tale of Satisfied Desire (1953), Death and Sensuality: A Study of Eroticism and the Taboo (1962), and The Birth of Art: Prehistoric Painting (1955). Bataille died in Paris on July 8, 1962. (Bowker Author Biography) show less
