Georges Bataille was the son of Joseph-Aristide Bataille (b. 1851), a tax collector (later to go blind and paralysed on account of neurosyphilis), and Antoinette-Aglaë Tournarde (b. 1865). Born in Billom in the region of Auvergne, his family moved to Reims in 1898, where he was baptized. He went to school in Reims and then Épernay. Although brought up without religious observance, he converted to Catholicism in 1914, and became a devout Catholic for about nine years. He considered entering the priesthood and attended a Catholic seminary briefly. However, he quit, apparently in part in order to pursue an occupation where he could eventually support his mother. He eventually renounced Christianity in the early 1920s.
I read Cliff Sargent's favorite book. It was.......something.
Story of the Eye by Georges Bataille is a book I discovered through @BetterThanFoodBookReviews's terrific channel. Though I expected something depraved and bizarre...I wasn't prepared for this experience.

Georges Bataille - Sacrifice, the Accursed Share and the Gnosticism of Base Materialism
Perhaps no philosopher has actively explored transgression more than Georges Bataille. His studies of eroticism, sacrifice, the "accursed share" and his gnostic inspired metaphysics of base materialism remain some of the most controversial in the history of philosophy. In this episode, we look at some of these core concepts in his thought, especially in terms of theory of religion.

Georges Bataille was the son of Joseph-Aristide Bataille (b. 1851), a tax collector (later to go blind and paralysed on account of neurosyphilis), and Antoinette-Aglaë Tournarde (b. 1865). Born in Billom in the region of Auvergne, his family moved to Reims in 1898, where he was baptized. He went to school in Reims and then Épernay. Although brought up without religious observance, he converted to Catholicism in 1914, and became a devout Catholic for about nine years.
