TITLE   History of Shit
AUTHOR   LAPORTE, Dominique
DESCRIPTION   DARK HORSEY SAYS- A kind of serious fun- a history conflating that of the high (‘consciousness’ & ‘subjectivity’) with the low (‘waste’) that offers itself as a prehistory to modernity & the modern subject. It examines, for example, the denigration of the olfactory, relating it to the Academy’s systematic cleansing of the French language to fiendishly coercive instrumental purpose. Nietzsche-Bataille-Foucault. Hardback in black velvet cover!
