Showing results for "Marquis De Sade" in Historical Fiction

The great virtue of this volume is that it reveals a lighter, comic side of Sade. He was a man obsessed, like many great writers, and his obsessions are still present here: his hatred of all things pretentious, his loathing of a corrupt judicial system, his damning of hypocrisy and false piety. One of the great anarchists of all time, he was nevertheless far from mad (as many pretended) and these works of fiction shed another light on this most feverish of minds.

Este diálogo nos ofrece la discusión entre un hombre que se encuentra al borde de la muerte y un sacerdote. El clérigo pretende que se arrepienta de sus pecados para que pueda morir dignamente como cristiano, sin embargo, el moribundo es un hombre ingenioso y filósofo que irá rebatiendo, uno por uno, los débiles argumentos expuestos por el cura.
