About the book: 2014 / Is it immoral to preach complete freedom - without the “brakes” of religion and ethical rules developed over millennia? Now some people think that such restrictions violate “human rights.” But this is exactly what Donatien de Sade called for with his life and books two centuries ago - for what now, alas, has turned into stereotypes of mass culture that we no longer notice, although the name of this man gave rise to the name for unacceptable, unmotivated cruelty. So what, in fact, did the notorious marquis devote his life to, paying for his addictions with an enchanting series of arrests and prison escapes? Maybe he just absolutized some ordinary moments of love games (read the Kama Sutra)? Or do we still not know some secret of this person? Sign of information products 18+
