Georges Bataille : les mots au-delà du sens. Du langage rationnel à l’écriture sacrificielle
Georges Bataille: words beyond meaning. From rational language to sacrificial writing

Summary/Abstract: In his work, George Bataille aims to uncover the part of human experience which escapes rational discourse. To achieve this, he establishes a subversive form of writing which plays with the conceptual language of philosophical knowledge to better reveal its limits. Central to this approach is the consideration of words as victims of a « sacrifice » which seeks to destroy their original meaning in order to free a hidden and evocative violence which enables the subject to establish a different rapport with the world.
