Searching for the ape within




This was a reflection on the academic's introduction to Georges Bataille's ON NIETZSCHE.  I have read both Nietzsche and Bataille very carefully over decades, so I see the interpretation/s Bataille makes of Nietzsche.  I also see how rigorous this was.  Nonetheless an academic takes the words of Bataille too literally, that is unironically, thinking he really  meant he was an "ape" of Nietzsche.
