A good read, so far. An incredibly well-written piece of literature. A great book to delve into the disgusting depths of the human mind, letting your own imagination fill in some of the gaps to create fantastic imagery. Hard to read in some areas, but nothing I haven't heard of or seen before.

Anyone else have thoughts on 120 Days of Sodom?

120 Days of Sodom was excellent.

marquis de sade and his work hold a special place in the history of literature. this place needs to never be ventured into because it is simply filled with stories engrossed in acts of eroticism and rape so revolting that vomiting after reading would be an improvement upon the piece. his pushing of the proverbial envelope in order to get some desperately needed attention should not have been indulged. the idea that this is literature; that this is a great piece of art is insulting to every other book in existence.
and to be honest, anyone who considers his work "amazing" or "wonderful" has little idea what literature is and has no grasp on what is sexy. sexy is subtle and clever. sexy is not a methodical and analytical description of sodomy.

i think they should feel ashamed. its the same as buying pornography basically. dressing it up like something else doesn't change what it is.
if they really do want it they should just accept the judgment they will get for the purchase. they wouldn't feel ashamed or judged if they didn't in some way feel it was wrong.

alright. The Venus of Urbino by Titian doesn't exactly argue against what is being said. While it is a painting of the the Duke of Urbino's wife pleasuring herself, sex has been a part of our culture since the beginning and i am not saying sex is the problem. And i wouldn't not consider this painting pornography. Is anything about it degrading or offensive? Not even in the slightest. The depiction of the female nude even in that pose is a fairly common one.What Sade has done is created a mockery of literature and human sensuality. He wrote smut and tried to pass it off as some great revelation or deeper look into the human psyche. Had he been around now all he would be creating are scripts for porno films.

Sade was a great writer but a fuckin perv. Look also for Histoire de Juliette

>> No.950070

Why I like 120 Days of Sodom.

1: Its fragmentation, in the latter stages, is in sync with the fragmentation of the reader's attention as it is repeatedly blasted by horror.
2: It is impossible to be sexually aroused by this 'pornographic' work.
3: It is impossible not to be sexually aroused by this pornographic work.
4: It is impossible to confess the extent of one's excitation.
5: It is impossible to credibly disavow the extent of one's excitation.
6: It is, with Sade's other fictions (to a lesser extent), the only accurate depiction of pre-revolutionary France.
7: It is the best pre-Marxist work on what the commodification of desire does to the desirer as well as the desired, and on what it is to be an aristocrat.
8: It begins by disgusting you, bores you, then finally amuses you - in the act of reading it, you become tainted by the irreconcilable worldview of Sade.
9: Like Cannibal Holocaust (and, I assume, Salo, which I have yet to see) in cinema, it is both essential to experience and impossible to recommend.
10: Its fragmentation makes it impossible for you to take the perspective of one not 'present', not implicated - you are with Sade as he composes it, you cannot take any position but his.
