Bataille was interested in sex, death, degradation, and the power and potential of the obscene. He rejected traditional literature and considered that the ultimate aim of all intellectual, artistic, or religious activity should be the annihilation of the rational individual in a violent, transcendental act of communion. Roland Barthes , Julia Kristeva, and Philippe Sollers have all written enthusiastically about his work. "Blameless, shameless. The more desperate the eroticism, the more hopelessly women show off their heavy breasts, opening their mouths and screaming out, the greater the attraction. In contrast, a promise of light awaits at the limits of the mystical outlook. I find this unbearable and soon returned to insolence and erotic vomit - which doesn't respect anybody or anything. How sweet to enter filthy night and proudly wrap myself in it. The whore I went with was as uncomplicated as a child and she hardly talked. There was another one, who came crashing down from a tabletop - sweet, shy, heartbreakingly tender, as I watched her with drunken, unfeeling eyes." (from Guilty In the 1920 Bataille was involved with the Surrealist movement, but he called himself the "enemy from within." He was officially excommunicated from its inner circles by André Breton, who accused him of splintering the movement. In the same decade Bataille started to write after a liberating period of psychoanalysis. He founded and edited many journals that revealed his interests in sociology, religion, and literature. Bataille was the first to publish such thinkers as Barthes, Foucault and Derrida. He edited

Biographical Notes Georges Bataille was born on 10 September 1897 in Billon, Puy-de-Dome, in central France. His father suffered from general paralysis, brought on by syphilis. He was, according to Bataille , already blind when Georges was conceived. His mother was also of dubious sanity. Family moves to Rheims in 1900. Bataille converts to Catholicism around the time of his baccaulaureate, just before the outbreak of the War in 1914. He and his mother evacuate the city, which was under the German advance, abandoning his father, who was too far gone to be easily transported. His father dies raving, ranting and refusing to see a priest, on 6 November 1915. These events have a powerful effect on Bataille. But the weirdest thing was certainly the way he looked while pissing. Since he could not see anything, his pupils very frequently pointed up into space, shifting under the lids, and this happened particularly when he pissed. Furthermore, he had huge, ever gaping eyes that flanked an eagle nose, and those huge eyes went almost entirely blank when he pissed, with a completely stupefying expression of abandon and aberration in a world that he alone could see and that aroused his vaguely sardonic and absent laugh.... In any case, the image of those white

Books Magazines Popular Music Classical Music DVD Video Video Games Computers Software Electronics Housewares Hardware Outdoor Living Toys Baby Gear Story of the Eye by Georges Bataille , Joachim Neugroschel (Translator). Only Georges Bataille could write, of an eyeball removed from a corpse, that "the caress of the eye over the skin is so utterly, so extraordinarily gentle, and the sensation is so bizarre that it has something of a rooster's horrible crowing." Bataille has been called a "metaphysician of evil," specializing in blasphemy, profanation, and horror. Story of the Eye , written in 1928, is his best-known work; it is unashamedly surrealistic, both disgusting and fascinating, and packed with seemingly endless violations. It's something of an underground classic, rediscovered by each new generation. Most recently, the Icelandic pop singer Björk Guðdmundsdóttir cites Story of the Eye as a major inspiration: she made a music video that alludes to Bataille's erotic uses of eggs, and she plans to read an excerpt for an album.

The Ark Encounter For The God Who Sings The Philosopher's Zone ... The Religion Report Sunday at 7.10am, repeated Wednesday at 7.10pm on Sunday 22/4/2001 Georges Bataille Summary: He's been described as a morbid obsessive, a blasphemer, a "sexual lunatic" and a pornographer. His Surrealist colleagues denounced him as "the excremental philosopher". And yet he was a deeply religious thinker, and his books have become essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the home truths of what religion is and how it works. He's Georges Bataille, the great "anti-philosopher", born into the ferment of early 20th century France, whose ideas are now enjoying a controversial upsurge in popularity a hundred years later. Details or Transcript: MUSIC: KYRIE Mark Taylor: I always tend to look for the religious in what is not manifestly religious, in other words I'm not interested in looking for the religious in what passes explicitly for religion, whether it's church architecture or so-called religious painting, or whatever - where I find the religious most interesting is where it's least obvious. And certainly the erotic is one of those places. GASP Daniel Smith: Bataille I started reading because he kind of flipped that way of thinking about the sacred on its head - I thought - because instead of seeing the sacred as some kind of organising principle, instead he saw the sacred as this violent, transgressive, excessive, cruel domain, that at all points had to be repressed or at least controlled, in what he calls 'the world of work' where we keep all that stuff at bay.

Bataille, Georges (1897-1962) last edited 1 year ago by admin Bataille was initially tempted by priesthood and went to a Catholic seminary but lost his faith in 1922. He is often quoted as regarding the brothels of Paris as his true churches, a sentiment which reflects the concepts in his work. He then worked as a librarian, thus keeping some relative freedom in not having to treat his thinking as work. Founder of several journals and groups of writers, Bataille is the author of an oeuvre both abundant and diverse: readings, poems, essays on innumerable subjects (on the mysticism of economy, in passing of poetry, philosophy, the arts, eroticism). He sometimes published under pseudonyms, and some publications were banned. He was relatively ignored in his lifetime and scorned by contemporaries such as Jean-Paul Sartre as an advocate of mysticism, but has had considerable influence after his death on authors such as Michel Foucault, Philippe Sollers and Jacques Derrida, all of whom were affiliated with the Tel Quel journal. Jean Baudrillard also counts him as an influence.

Georges Bataille’s Story of the Eye “A punk-pornocopia equivalent to Last Year at Marienbad Dennis Harvey, Variety Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye is a provocation that hypnotizes, a hallucinatory narcotic.” Johnny Ray Huston, The San Francisco Bay Guardian “This is not a movie for passive consumption, but a film that bites back.” Dave Kehr, The New York Times “Andrew Repasky McElhinney's new feature Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye is a new landmark in underground cinema. The film is an artistic assault on both the senses and sensibility. Mixing equal parts of surrealism, eroticism and silliness into a vibrant package rich with lush cinematography and a challenging soundtrack, [ Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye ] is a brilliant achievement that demands attention and challenges the audience in a way that few films today can even dare to achieve.” Phil Hall, Film Threat / The Encyclopedia of Underground Movies “It’s quite an “Eye”-ful . . . brave and shocking” V.A.Musetto, The New York Post “ambiguous hypnotic confrontational ” Matt Prigge
