    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."

  6. 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.

  7. @CoolerPseudonym

    Might recategorising some activities previously rejected on the basis of juvenilia allow for increased joy, lightness and blood flow?

    Perhaps avoiding the mature approach of cognitating on which activities to reclassify could be acheived by experimentation?

    Please do however remember the immortal caution of #Voltaire's reply on being invited to a second night of entertainments by the #MarquisDeSade.
    "Once is philosophy, twice is perversion."

  8. Materialism, Instrumental Reason, and Hostile Enlightenment: The Marquis de Sade as the Antithesis of the Enlightenment

    By Mykyta Storozhenko

    The aim of this paper is to tie together the Enlightenment ideas regarding Materialism and Instrumental Reason with Pierre Saint-Amand’s thought in his “Hostile Enlightenment” article. The paper will be . . .

  11. 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 . . .

  12. 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."

  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. The Marquis de Sade and the Enlightenment

    Sade exemplifies some of the major features of the Enlightenment project: in fact his philosophy represents the logical conclusion of much Enlightenment thought. For example, he demonstrates that morals are historically and culturally contingent, that is, they are merely mores or customs and traditions . . .

  16. You Don't Find Maldoror—It Finds You

    Many of you have never read The Songs of Maldoror (1868) and it shows. When the French surrealist prose poem was first presented to me by a friend as "the most evil book ever written," it wasn't so much the content that affirmed the claim, but the atmosphere that permeated as I read it . . .

    “As the age of handwriting comes to an end,” Joel Warner asks in his new book, “what is the value of the original texts left behind?” As it turns out, quite a bit. Warner’s The Curse of the Marquis de Sade: A Notorious Scoundrel, a Mythical Manuscript, and the Biggest Scandal in Literary History tells the story not of the . . .
