Description
Georges Bataille's Guilty is a deeply personal and philosophical work that chronicles his spiritual and intellectual journey through World War II. Written in diary form, this searing account explores the author's search for meaning and connection in a world torn apart by conflict. Bataille's writing is characterized by its intensity and passion, as he grapples with the big questions of existence and the human condition. This new translation includes Bataille's notes and drafts, offering a unique insight into the development of his ideas and the creation of this powerful work. Stuart Kendall's introductory essay provides valuable context for understanding Guilty within its historical, biographical, and philosophical contexts. With its extensive annotations and full text from Bataille's Oeuvres Complètes, this edition is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in philosophy, existentialism, or literary theory.
