Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Chicago, 1995.

This dissertation considers the understanding of and appeal to mystical experience in the writings of Georges Bataille (1897-1962). It begins with a consideration of how to read the texts of Bataille. After analyzing the criticisms of Bataille by Andre Breton and Jean-Paul Sartre, and assessing the different approaches to Bataille's texts taken by Allan Stoekl and Nick Land, Chapter One develops a method of reading Bataille that attends to the "movement" within his texts. Chapter Two explores Bataille's understanding of materialism, reviewing Bataille's early writings that propose a need for "real presence" and "adventurous description," examining the nature of expenditure in Bataille's general economy, and assessing Bataille's relation to the work of both Alexandre Kojeve and Friederich Nietzsche. Chapter Three introduces the basic "formula" of eroticism in light of Bataille's account of existence itself. Having established expenditure as the underlying movement of all human activity, Chapter Three goes on to describe the wanted and unwanted effects of the prohibitions that delineate the human world as human. Chapter Three concludes with a brief exploration of Bataille's understanding of physical and emotional eroticism. Chapter Four considers Bataille's understanding of religious eroticism and argues that, in Bataille's texts, Christianity is both a form and a repression of religious eroticism. Chapter Five considers the "sacred world" of profane eroticism in relation to the "limitless eroticism" of (apophatic) Christian mystics.Subjects--Topical Terms:
