No other writer has so scandalized proper society as the Marquis de Sade but despite the deliberate destruction of over three-quarters of his work Sade remains a major figure in the history of ideas. His influence on some of the greatest minds of the last century--from Baudelaire and Swinburne to Nietzsche Dostoyevsky and Kafka--is indisputable. This volume contains Philosophy in the Bedroom a major novel that presents the clearest summation of his political philosophy; Eug nie de Franval a novella widely considered to be a masterpiece of eighteenth-century French literature; and the only authentic and complete American edition of his most famous work Justine. This literary portrait of Sade is completed by one of his earliest philosophical efforts Dialogue between a Priest and a Dying Man a selection of his letters a fifty-page chronology of his life two important essays on Sade and a bibliography of his work.
