Understanding French Verse: A Guide for Singers Book

"Documents" was the great writer and the thinker of the Underworld Georges Bataille's great journal that lasted for a year or so. Put together in the late 20's, the journal was probably the first time that a group of artists thought about Africian Tribal art or old civilizations and what it meant to Contemporary Art and practices.

With Bataille you got the feeling that he had sort of X-Ray eyes at looking at contemporary culture and had an understanding what lurks underneath that skin. Strongly erotic impulses are measured along with the 'waste' of previous cultures and civilizations. A beautifully (if one can call it that) document of a time when artists explored their regions and matched it up with something from the past.
