Description

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.
