His writing has transfixed his readers for decades - exerting a powerful influence upon Foucault, Blanchot and Derrida amongst many others. Today, Bataille continues to be an important reference for many of today's leading theorists such as Giorgio Agamben, Roberto Esposito, Jean-Luc Nancy and Adrianna Caverero. His work is a unique and enigmatic combination of mystical phenomenology, politics, anthropology and economic theory - sometimes adopting the form of literature, sometimes that of ontology. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This is the first book to take Bataille's ambitious and unfinished \u003ci\u003eAccursed Share\u003c\/i\u003e project as its thematic guide, with individual contributors isolating themes, concepts or sections from within the three volumes and taking them in different directions.
