http://video.stumbleupon.com/?p=1yamaur1y4; British filmmaker Ken McMullen's improvisational, non-linear film, 'Ghost Dance' (1983) concerns itself with various 'ghosts' (e.g., Kafka, Marx, Freud) and the issue of memory (the past) and how it functions in the present. French philosopher Jacques Derrida plays 'himself' in the film and comments upon ghosts as they pertain to cinema and representation itself [...] cinema, for Derrida, 'is the art of ghosts' and he regards himself--as portrayed in the film--as yet another ghost in whom he 'believes' [...] modern technology (specifically, telecommunications), he says, instead of vanquishing ghosts, actually multiplies them [...] however this is not necessarily negative--its quite the opposite--'long live the ghosts!' he exclaims near the end of the clip. The late Pascale Ogier plays 'Pascale' who is questioning Derrida.

The emperor's leniency granted that he should not be burned as decreed, but cut to pieces, into a hundred pieces: cut up alive. Georges Dumas may have been and Adrien Borel certainly was present at this execution on 10 April 1905, and brought back photographs of it.' (From Michel Surya's biography of Bataille, p.93)

1868 Edition of Charles Baudelaires Fleurs du mal: Jun 19, 2:30am 1 review poetry, baudelaire, flowers-of-evil
http://fleursdumal.org/toc_1868.php; After the death of Baudelaire on August 31, 1867, the rights to the poet's work reverted --ironically enough, given his relationship with her-- to his aging mother. His friends, however, were not content to allow Baudelaire to fade into nothingness, and thus induced his mother to allow them to produce a definitive edition of his works. Subsequently, Baudelaire's close friends the poet Th�odore de Banville and the bibliophile Charles Asselineau sold the rights to his complete works to the publisher Michel L�vy. The complete works were to include Les Fleurs du mal, Les Paradis artificiels, Baudelaire's translations of Edgar Allan Poe, as well as prose poems, art criticism, and miscellaneous writings. In December 1868 the third edition of Les Fleurs du mal --volume 1 of the poet's complete works-- went on sale in Paris. Along with an introduction by the poet Th�ophile Gautier, this new edition contained all the poems of the 1861 edition, eleven poems from Les �paves, plus a few others. (It lacked, however, the six poems censored from the first edition, since these were still illegal to print in France.) This 1868 edition was the only one authorized by Baudelaire's estate until his work fell into the public domain in 1917. However, though Banville and Asselineau certainly meant well in assembling and editing the work, scholars today generally disagree with some of the choices made by the two friends, in particular with several of the poems they chose to include and with the way in which these poems altered the "secret architecture" of the 1861 edition.
