Does anyone know anything more about Acephalus? I'd be interested to
know if anything has been written or reserached on this. There are
references in a biography I read of Bataille but nothing concrete. I
know that we mentioned this briefly on the first incarnation of the list
but sadly the archives were deleted as part of its demise (Ben from
Caduceus, that's a very belated answer to a query you sent to me a month
or so ago ... Sorry for the delay Ben).
Just a reminder for new list members to introduce themselves should they
so wish.

There's also the surrealist philosopher Georges Bataille and his secret
society, Acephalus, which was apparently centered around the idea of
human sacrifice.
