La obra que hoy traducimos puede leerse en una doble clave -materialista y modista-: por todas las partes del globo en las que se desarrolla la existencia, ya sea animal o vegetal, no hay más que una única fuerza desplegándose y produciendo un excedente destinado a la destrucción. Pero, en el hombre, esa fuerza lejos de mostrarse tal como es - es decir, en su carácter informe- aparece reducida a la estrechez de una forma: la vida dentro de los límites de lo útil que lo ata a su aislamiento, su cerrarse sobre sí. I pulled this from my shelf as I was dusting, having read it some 15 years ago. 15 years ago! I liked it then, and I still like it. Bataille critiques traditional economy and examines what he calls the 'general economy', an economy not wholly based on production (as Marx would have it), but excess and expenditure, or non-productive surplus. On a philosophical level, it defines self-consciousness or a liberated subjectivity as 'prestige'--an economy of gift exchange that runs on endless consumption and annihilation of riches. This is different from the traditional economy which sees riches as something to be accumulated, hoarded. Not so, says Bataille. Riches are there to perish, and with it, the annihilation of unified 'self'--a consciousness' most valued possession. Economics meets psychoanalysis. Reverie over. Placed it back on the shelf.

Most Anglo-American readers know Bataille as a novelist. The Accursed Share provides an excellent introduction to Bataille the philosopher. Here he uses his unique economic theory as the basis for an incisive inquiry into the very nature of civilization. Unlike conventional economic models based on notions of scarcity, Bataille's theory develops the concept of excess: a civilization, he argues, reveals its order most clearly in the treatment of its surplus energy. The result is a brilliant blend of ethics, aesthetics, and cultural anthropology that challenges both mainstream economics and ethnology. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
