Philosophy in the Bedroom
Philosophy in the Bedroom | marquis de Sade
2 posts | 8 read | 3 to read
Philosophy in the Bedroom is a book by the Marquis de Sade written in the form of a dramatic dialogue. Though initially considered a work of pornography, the book has come to be considered a socio-political drama. Set in a bedroom, the two lead characters make the argument that the only moral system that reinforces the recent political revolution is libertinism, and that if the people of France fail to adopt the libertine philosophy, France will be destined to return to a monarchic state.

Marquis De Sade, the first and ultimate libertine they say and after a quick Google search I found he is quite the character. Born in the seventeen century, Marques was quite unusual and the word sadism was directly taken from his name and invented for him and his behaviour. I can't describe this book, it's a hard read in a lot of ways so all I will say is, read it for yourself but it's not for the faint hearted in any shape or form.
