/lit/ - Literature

what's the /lit/ concensus on Bataille?

There has to be something up with the air over in France. Why does it keep producing these weirdly hyper-sexual schizophrenics?

That's part of the fantasy aswell

What the fuck was his problem?

Do you like him?

where do i begin with him?

will he turn me into a coomer?

I've been getting into Bataille lately and it has been throwing me into big anxiety crisis. I don't think he's right on everything, but the way he ties eroticism and death really struck me. I often go for long walk in my city. I used to enjoy looking at girls but now I cannot meet a girl's eyes without thinking of killing myself in front of her. When I see a girl with a skirt, I can only imagine her menstruation flowing along her legs to the ground and I want to lie down on the spot and just watch while crying. When I walk behind a girl and I see her ass I imagine her crushing me to death in it. I've sometimes had mild schizo episodes but this is the worse by far. I cannot even masturbate anymore without thinking about roping myself. The worse is that I now see all my past "erotic" readings as deeply tied to death.
What are some books/philosophy/authors that propose a positive view of sexuality? Not one filled with angst.

Is there anyone more based?

Literature has made me more "evil" though.

Everything has become perspective, rhetoric, discourse. Fascism has its aesthetic and expressive dimensions. Feudalism, Sorelianism and anarchism as well.

If politics is the pursuit of "the good", then I'm lost - everyone involved in it seem like gibbering children crying over the fact that their word isn't final.

What does /lit/ think of Bataille? what should I check after finishing story of the eye?

what’s this guys deal? ive heard he’s a left wing nietzschean who argued he wasn’t actually a pan european racialist who had contempt for liberals and communists

Georges Bataille is the undisputed master of erotic fiction. I frequently plagiarize lines from "Story of the Eye", "Madame Edwarda", and "My Mother" whilst ERPing on chat sites, "f 18"s LOVE it. If they aren't into exhibitionism, incest, piss, torture, anal, etc. i just slip in some of his prose and before long:
>Stranger: "Milk is for the pussy, isn't it?" *i dip my pink and dark flesh into the cool white milk and eye your stiff cock bulging in your trousers*
You can see it in his face, just look at it. This is the face of a true 1920s COOMER

Opinions on this guy? where to start with his works?
i only know that he writes lewd stuff and masturbated in front of corpse of his mother.

Why was he so miserable?

Stop not watching porn

What is the best work as an introduction to his thought? I think his novels are better understood after studying his philosophical, sociological, aesthetic and literary views.
Secondary literature to his theories are welcome too.

The French try to play at degeneracy, but I think that the Americans are the REAL deal in that regard.
