Venus in Furs

Autor Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch Traducere de Fernanda Savage
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 dec 2006
And yet a restless, always unsatisfied craving for the nudity of paganism, she interrupted, "but that love, which is the highest joy, which is divine simplicity itself, is not for you moderns, you children of reflection. It works only evil in you. As soon as you wish to be natural, you become common. To you nature seems something hostile; you have made devils out of the smiling gods of Greece, and out of me a demon. You can only exorcise and curse me, or slay yourselves in bacchantic madness before my altar.

Notă biografică

Leopold von Sacher-Masoch was an Austrian novelist, journalist, and cultural historian best known for his influential works of psychological fiction exploring desire, power, romance, and social relationships. A major figure in 19th-century European literature, Sacher-Masoch gained lasting recognition for Venus in Furs, a landmark novel whose themes of erotic obsession and power dynamics inspired the psychological term "masochism." Beyond his controversial reputation, he wrote extensively about history, folklore, politics, and life in Eastern Europe, producing novels and essays that examined social justice, identity, and human behavior.
