Les 120 journées de Sodome, ou, L'école du libertinage
C'est maintenant, ami lecteur, qu'il faut disposer ton coeur et ton esprit au récit le plus impur qui ait jamais été fait depuis que le monde existe, le pareil livre ne se rencontrant ni chez les anciens ni chez les modernes. Imagine-toi que toute jouissance honnête ou prescrite par cette bête dont tu parles sans cesse et que tu appelles nature, que ces jouissances, dis-je, seront expressément exclues de ce recueil et que, lorsque tu les rencontreras par aventure, ce ne sera jamais qu'autant qu'elles seront accompagnées de quelque crime ou colorées de quelque infamie.

Donatien Alphonse François, Marquis de Sade was a French aristocrat and writer famous for his libertine sexuality and lifestyle. His works include novels, short stories, plays, and political tracts; in his lifetime some were published under his own name, while others appeared anonymously and Sade denied being their author. He is best known for his erotic novels, which combined philosophical discourse with pornography, depicting bizarre sexual fantasies with an emphasis on violence, criminality, and blasphemy against the Catholic Church. He was a proponent of extreme freedom, unrestrained by morality, religion or law. Sade was incarcerated in various prisons and in an insane asylum for about 32 years of his life; eleven years in Paris (10 of which were spent in the Bastille) a month in Conciergerie, two years in a fortress, a year in Madelonnettes, three years in Bicêtre, a year in Sainte-Pélagie, and 13 years in the Charenton asylum. Many of his works were written in prison. The term "sadism" is derived from his name. ([Source][1]) [1]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquis_de_Sade
