Marquis De Sade, Taboo, Terror, Erotic, Torture, Extreme, Classic; Paperback Book - New
The name of the Marquis de Sade is synonymous with the blackest corners of the human soul, a byword for all that is foulest in human conduct. In his bleak, claustrophobic universe, there is no God, no morality, no human affection, and no hope. Power is given to the strong, and the strong are murderers, torturers, and tyrants. No quarter is given; compassion is the virtue of the weak. Yet Sade was a man of savage intelligence who carried the philosophy of the French Enlightenment to its logical extreme. His writings effectively release the individual from all social and moral constraint: for many, Sade is the Great Libertarian. The Victorians considered him `Divine' and Apollinaire called him `the freest spirit'; the Surrealists recognised him as a founding father, and he is a key figure in the history of modernism and post-modernism. With Freud and Marx, Sade has been one of the crucial shaping influences on this century, and reactions to him continue to be extreme. But he has always been more talked about than read. This selection of his early writings, some making their first appearance in this new translation, reveals the full range of Sade's sobering moods and considerable talents.
Satan, Devil, Historic, Occult, Religion; Paperback Book - New
Moses Hull was once a minister in his own right. Having lost faith, he joined the burgeoning spiritualist movement of the late 1800s and began preaching against the evils of the christian body. Pointing to many (sometimes humorous) anecdotes and tales of church oppression, Hull here ruminates on the superiority of Satan over god, the superiority of occult wisdom over the barbaric nature of the christian cult, and the wonders of then-modern scientific reality, so long spurned christians. It may be seen as part demonology, part Luciferian manifesto, and part philosophical counterpoint to the greed and envy of the christian movement.
Surreal, Breton, Magritte, Ernst, Art, Poetry, Games; (1991 reprint) Paperback - Ex Used condition (some writing inside front cover)
Surrealism is far more than an aged art movement: it is also a collection of tools for perceiving and representing the world in ways that transcend normative perspectives. This delightful collection allows everyone to enjoy firsthand the provocative methods used by the artists and poets of the Surrealist school to break through conventional thought and behavior to a deeper truth. Invented and played by such artists as André Breton, Rene Magritte, and Max Ernst, these gems still produce results ranging from the hilarious to the mysterious and profound. This great little book is packed with word and image games that surrealists developed to create their written and graphical art. If you have any spark of creativity, you are strongly encouraged to get this book to help loosen the holds of quotidian existence on your craft. And it makes a great book of activities for parties that you want to rise above petite bourgeois posturing.
