Something from Bataille I wonder about doing a meme of:

The principle of this reversal can be expressed in simple terms. CAESARIAN UNITY, ESTABLISHED BY A LEADER - A HEAD - IS OPPOSED BY THE HEADLESS COMMUNITY, BOUND TOGETHER BY THE OBSESSIVE IMAGE OF A TRAGEDY. Life demands that men gather together, and men are only gathered together by a leader or by a tragedy. To look for a HEADLESS human community is to look for tragedy: putting the leader to death is itself tragedy, it remains a requirement of tragedy. A truth that will change the appearance of human things starts here: THE EMOTIONAL ELEMENT THAT GIVES AN OBSESSIVE VALUE TO COMMUNAL LIFE IS DEATH.

- Georges Bataille, Nietzschean Chronicle, Visions of Excess

Certainly seems like something that connects to the Fall and to any given cult of the Fall.

And of course, we have individually expanded that documentation with lots and lots of books and documents regarding Numantia and the Iberian Peninsula during that time.”
