  2. This is from 2015, and it is better written than I expected it to be. Being written for the Smithsonian, it quite naturally glosses over some of the more salacious aspects of Sade's life.

  5. The Real Marquis de Sade

    By Andrew Hussey

    The Marquis de Sade is one of those few writers who have given the world an adjective. The problem is that this has become a kind of shorthand: without reading Sade everybody presumes to know what he is all about. It is only when you pay close attention to his work that you begin to understand that his writing is not erotica . . .

  6. Taming the Savage Noble

    By Francis X. Rocca

    The first time the Marquis de Sade went to prison, in 1763, it was under a royal lettre de cachet signed by Louis XV, on charges of "blasphemy and incitement to sacrilege." Thirty years later, after the Revolution, the aristocrat nearly went to the guillotine for having "corresponded with enemies of the republic."

    While Audrey is lovely, it's the lathe and plaster wall behind that grabs my attention. 🙂

    There is one in every crowd.

    "Oh my gosh, is that a genuine Titian on the yelp, yelp, wall over, yelp, yelp, there my dear Marquis? I'll be heading right over to inspect it closely once there yelp yelp, is a break in the whipping."

  13. The Garden of Torment, a 1976 French film based on Octave Mirbeau’s 1899 novel.

    Set in China in the 1920s, the warlord era.

    Erotic, arty, provocative, disturbing and convincingly decadent. The main female character is both evil and weirdly sympathetic.

    There’s definitely a strong de Sade influence here.

    Very highly recommended.

  14. On this day in 1814, the incorrigible Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade, died at Charenton Asylum in Val-de-Marne, France. He was 74 years old. Regrettably, his son burnt all of his remaining unpublished manuscripts.
