Thank you, it is much appreciated.

Is there a way to transcend our human condition, to surpass our mundane life experience? In Eroticism, published in 1957, Georges Bataille draws a link between the erotic experience and the mystical one through their connection to reproduction, love and death. In this essay, I examine the foreword and introduction chapters to the book. I also plan to write a follow-up essay on a later chapter and the book’s conclusion later.

Special thanks to Jacqy for giving me the book.
