Translated and with an introduction by Stuart Kendall. 220 pages. paperback. keywords: Europe France Literature Poetry Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION-Despite its relative rarity, and the condensed brevity of the poems themselves, poetry occupies a striking place in the literary and philosophical oeuvre of Georges Bataille. For Bataille, poetry had no meaning except in the violence of revolt, which it could attain only by evoking the impossible. Toward this end, he wrote poetry, as he says in Inner Experience, with necessity-in accordance with my life. Although poems appear in four of his major works, and others were published independently in a small collection and in magazines, much of Bataille's poetry remained unpublished at the time of his death. This volume presents a nearly complete edition of the poems in chronological order. Stuart Kendall provides an extensive introduction and notes highlighting the literary, philosophical, and theological significance of Bataille's poetry. He also explores the influence of Nietzsche, St. John of the Cross, Blake, Baudelaire, and other počtes maudits and situates the poems in relation to Bataille's other writings and the period in which he wrote. Georges Bataille (1897–1962), a medievalist librarian by training, founded the College of Sociology and the secret society AcEphale. He was equally famous for his contributions to French literature, art criticism, anthropology, philosophy, and theology. Bane of theologians, existentialists, and surrealists during his lifetime, he became an essential reference for the poststructuralist generation of French intellectuals, including Roland Barthes, Jean Baudrillard, Michel Foucault, and Jacques Derrida. inventory #43888.
