Marquis De Sade: The Man And His Age is a comprehensive study of the life and work of the infamous French writer, philosopher, and libertine, the Marquis de Sade. Written by Iwan Bloch, a German physician and historian, the book explores the cultural and moral context of the 18th century in which de Sade lived, as well as the political and social upheavals that shaped his worldview. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources and archival materials, Bloch offers a nuanced and detailed portrait of de Sade's life, his literary output, and his controversial ideas about sexuality, power, and morality. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of French literature, philosophy, and culture, as well as the broader social and intellectual currents of the Enlightenment era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
