For readers of philosophy interested in twentieth-century French thought, the critique of utilitarianism and the debate with surrealism.
Georges Albert Maurice Victor Bataille was a French intellectual working in philosophy, literature, sociology, anthropology, and history of art. His writing, which included essays, novels, and poetry, explored such subjects as eroticism, mysticism, surrealism, and transgression. His work would prove influential on subsequent schools of philosophy and social theory, including post-structuralism.
