ABSTRACT
Georges Bataille (Billom, 1897-Paris, 1962) is an author normally linked with French post-structuralism, along with Gilles Deleuze (1925-95), Michel Foucault (1926-84), and Jacques Derrida (1930-2004), despite his work being prior to most of these philosophers. The reason behind this association is due to his thorough review of Nietzsche’s thinking and its influence on his work.
