"As a result, such a book being in everyone's interest might as well be in nobody's interest," he wrote in the foreword.It is about going to the end of the possibilities of the world.His vision of "general economics", to which also relate his texts entitled The Limit of the useful, The Economy to the measure of the universe, is marked by a crossing of sciences humanities and physical science, due to the influence of his friend Georges Ambrosino, a researcher in nuclear physics, met in the mid-1930s, and who participated in the founding of the College of Sociology in 1937.Bataille tackles the problem of excess energy outside of specific disciplines, in an interdisciplinary manner.It is this unprecedented interdisciplinary perspective, in ...

Bataille fled the invading German army in 1914, abandoning his blind and paralyzed father, but was called up in 1916, though he was discharged a year later when he fell seriously ill. Bataille's attitude, however, towards the war was remarkably different from other Surrealists of the time.Bataille's query into the origins of ocularcentrism led him to a fascination with cave paintings and the ways in which man perceived before the coming of civilization.Breton charges Bataille in Manifestoes of Surrealism claiming that "M. Bataille's misfortune is to reason: admittedly, he reasons like someone who 'has a fly on his nose,' which allies him more closely with the dead than the living, but he does reason.What is paradoxical and embarrassing a...

The Medio-Platonic variant of Latin eroticism indulges in passion, even initiatory mysticism (Apuleius and the Isiac Mysteries).The Middle Ages invented the courtly novel, brilliantly illustrated by Chrétien de Troyes.The mystics describe themselves as the “spouses” of God, and frequently speak of an intimate union with their God (see Transverberation of Saint Thérèse).Luther, on the other hand, speaks of the soul as the “bride of Christ”.It is inspired as much by Plato's amorous dialectic, which went from bodily eroticism (Le Banquet) to a more mysterious, chaste, more religious eroticism (Phaedrus), as from the Bible (notably the Song of Songs in the 'Old Testament, which pictorially describes the journey of two lovers, and the New Tes...

Apart from his descriptive songs, his repertoire is divided between rustic, narrative, gallant songs, and erotic or satirical epigrams.One will find in Halévy-His-Vignes 2013, p. 439-465, a complete list of the works of Janequin, including spiritual pieces and motets, with their original sources and the names of the poets.Thus, his song, La Guerre ou La Bataille was used on the soundtrack of Gus Van Sant's film Last Days (at the very beginning of the film and in the end credits).Janequin's music remains highly regarded and has been recorded often.When you listen to La Guerre or Les Cris de Paris, you have the impression of hearing, in addition to the music, the sounds present at that time, as if they had been recorded.

She exemplifies her yearn to become more manly and explains that she was happy in her dream because she “had a beard and my chest was flat.” Her dream allowed her to realize her desire to be a butch and finally be able to connect with others like her.Eroticism as defined by Bataille holds undeniable truth in the case of same-sex love.More specifically, the implications of homoeroticism are seen in Walt Whitman’s foliage related metaphor in the “Calamus” poems, Audre Lorde’s experience with lesbians as written in her autobiography “Zami: A New Spelling of My Name”, Essex Hemphill’s loneliness in his poem “Under Certain Circumstances”, Housman’s unrequited love in Tom Stoppard’s play “The Invention of Love, and Leslie Feinberg’s resemblanc...

Its position over the years became more radical: thus, in June 1929, it took as its subtitle an international quaterly for creative experiment (“an international quarterly for experimental creation”) and opened with a manifesto entitled “The Revolution of the Word Proclamation ”where the authors assert that the literary creator has the right to disintegrate the primal matter of words imposed on him by textbooks and dictionaries (“ The writer has the right to disintegrate the raw material of the words imposed on him through textbooks and dictionaries ”), as part of a manifesto signed by Kay Boyle, Whit Burnett, Hart Crane, Caresse Crosby, Harry Crosby, Martha Foley, Stuart Gilbert, A.

His writing, cold and concise, makes it all the more fascinating.Taken in the first degree and understood with a reading grid from the 2000s, it is only an erotic novel, but Histoire d ' O is also a cry, that of a person who wants to belong to another.Conversely, Georges Bataille and Graham Greene admired the work of Pauline Réage.There is a sequel, Retour à Roissy.The book received the Deux-Magots prize in 1955. .

One of the main battles is between pleasure and pain, and we all struggle to deal with it internally.In another of Bataille’s works, Madame Edwarda, he continues with the pleasure-pain principle as he is quoted, .The greatest pleasures are only experienced after great pain such as childbirth, where the joy of motherhood as well as no longer experiencing the pain of pregnancy fuse to form an apex of pleasure that few can ever reach.Maurice Blanchot writes in The Infinite Conversation, how mankind is a fusion of both principles.Similarly sexual intercourse at first for women is tremendously painful however after the initial pain, a whole new world of pleasure and satisfaction is opened up to them.

The creator of The 4400 series, Scott Peters, was responsible for writing, adapting, and is also producing with Warner Bros. this remake.If it is a sequel, the film would probably have been inspired by the novel V: The Second Generation: it would not have taken place after the episode The Return of the series, nor even after The Final Battle but directly after the original miniseries.Jane Badler, Diana in the old series, is present in the cast of season 2 from episode 1.The same main actors would have taken over their respective roles: Marc Singer, Faye Grant, Jane Badler and Robert Englund in particular.Likewise, Marc Singer is seen appearing in the final episode of Season 2, as Lars Tremont, who is a member of a top-secret organization...

The “Battle of Algiers” is a film which is worth seeing since it tells us history as well as moral lessons on how we should respect others’ properties as well as struggle to preserve one’s own belonging.One last character to mention is Omar, the small boy whose duty was mainly to transmit letters and serve as a messenger between the FLN members and which represents the Algerian children who participated in the resistance and who proved to be older than their ages.In the “Battle of Algiers”, Pontecorvo shows the inevitability of violence.They will be losers no matters how long they manage to stay there.In other words, every part wants to be the winner and hence tries to be the last one to inflict the other: an execution of an FLN leader l...

Now man can devote himself to art, to love at play, (activities that make him "happy").The end of history marks the end of historical man, of Action in the strong sense of the term (wars and revolutions).Presented in the middle of the Cold War in a note subsequent to the drafting of the Introduction to Hegel, these theses on a classless world on its western side as on its eastern side could have surprised.It represents more Kojève's own thought than Hegel's.The American neoconservative Francis Fukuyama, in The End of History and the Last Man, develops a similar thesis, but with a goal opposed to Kojève's Marxist thought: the end of history would be here advent of liberalism and the market economy, not of a classless society.
