Date: Sun, 29 Aug 2004 12:02:16 +0100 Dear William In 1943 Blanchot publishes an essay on George Bataille's L'Experience Interieure, 'L'Experience interieure', Le Journal des debats, May 12, p. 3 and collects this essay in the same year in his first collection of essays: Faux Pas, Paris: Gallimard. Presumably this isn't what has been included in 1945 as the preface to Bataille's Sur Nietzsche. However there is an 'Author's introduction' to Faux Pas which may be what Vattimo is quoting from, given the essay by Blanchot on Bataille in this volume. Faux Pas was published in translation in 2001, under the French title, by Stanford in the Meridian: Crossing Aesthetics series, translated by Charlotte Mandell. Blanchot's first essay on Nietzsche wasn't published until 1946 so that rules that out! With best wishes, Susan Foale
