{"product_id":"9781469117492","title":"Carl Einstein in Documents: And His Collaboration With Georges Bataille","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe short-lived art magazine \u003ci\u003eDocuments\u003c\/i\u003e (1929-30) has since the eighties become an object of increasing fascination to art historians and students of French intellectual culture. The light shed on \u003ci\u003eDocuments\u003c\/i\u003e has not, however, dispelled the sense of mystery surrounding its two years of exuberant production, and sudden demise. What actually happened? The main figure associated with the magazine has been the writer Georges Bataille but a German novelist and art historian Carl Einstein was also centrally involved. What was he doing in \u003ci\u003eDocuments,\u003c\/i\u003e and why has he disappeared from the picture? This book traces Einstein´s role, detailing his charged collaboration with the younger Bataille, which contributed to \u003ci\u003eDocuments´\u003c\/i\u003e collapse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xlibris US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47124917846256,"sku":"9781469117492","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781469117492_p0.jpg?v=1763698301","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781469117492","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
