Product Description

Product Description
Sadism was Sade's weapon of exploration into the fundamental nature of morality. His excess soon landed him in prison and his dangerous ideas kept him jailed for most of his life. He died in an insane asylum. This guide places Sade in the materialist current of Western philosophy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Graphic but necessary language., 23 Sep 1999
This book assumes a slight fore-knowledge of Sade's life and work, neither of which I had before reading it! However, one would have to be quite the fool to not catch on quickly. It would be an ideal revision aid, though it ought not to be seen as a substitute for any proper lectures or detailed texts available on the subject. An all round excellent introduction to de Sade.

4.0 out of 5 stars Introduction to Introduction, 28 Jan 2009
By The Badger (Warrington, England) - See all my reviews
Again the 'Introduction' series has done it again. This is a very easy read although because of the illustrations the book can be finished quickly. If you want to learn the basics about DeSade's life then this is a must.
Just beware... there are some 'interesting' pictures inside.
