The definition of erotic literature is broad, encompassing all the material recognized in the study of the field: not just fiction in all genres (novels, poetry, short stories, drama), but also essays, autobiographies, treatises and sex manuals from different cultures.

Download or read book Erotic Literature in Adaptation and Translation written by Johannes D Kaminski and published by Legenda. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transgressive by nature, erotic literature engages the reader in a dialogue informed by the social and aesthetic conventions that it playfully disregards or happily reproduces. But once this intimate, arousing and, often, disturbing dialogue transitions into another language, culture or medium, it must reposition itself within new conventions. How does this happen in practice? Examining erotic literature from multiple angles, this volume starts off with an ethical evaluation of the most recent rendering of Marquis de Sade into English. Other inquiries into European letters include the works of Goethe, Georges Bataille, Pierre Guyotat and E. L. James, and the films of Michael Haneke and Patrice Chéreau. Studies of Chinese and Japanese erotic traditions complement the picture by addressing the different functions of the erotic in discrete cultural settings. Johannes D. Kaminski is Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow at University of Vienna.

Download or read book Erotic Subjects written by Melissa E. Sanchez and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treating sixteenth- and seventeenth-century erotic literature as part of English political history, Erotic Subjects traces some surprising implications of two early modern commonplaces: first, that love is the basis of political consent and obedience, and second, that suffering is an intrinsic part of love. Rather than dismiss such assumptions as mere conventions, Melissa Sanchez uncovers the political import of early modern literature's fascination with eroticized violence. Focusing on representations of masochism, sexual assault, and cross-gendered identification, Sanchez re-examines the work of politically active writers from Philip Sidney to John Milton. She argues that political allegiance and consent appear far less conscious and deliberate than traditional historical narratives allow when Sidney depicts abjection as a source of both moral authority and sexual arousal; when Edmund Spenser and William Shakespeare make it hard to distinguish between rape and seduction; when Mary Wroth and Margaret Cavendish depict women who adore treacherous or abusive lovers; when court masques stress the pleasures of enslavement; or when Milton insists that even Edenic marriage is hopelessly pervaded by aggression and self-loathing. Sanchez shows that this literature constitutes an alternate tradition of political theory that acknowledges the irrational and perverse components of power and thereby disrupts more conventional accounts of politics as driven by self-interest, false consciousness, or brute force. Erotic Subjects will be of interest to students and scholars of early modern literary and political history, as well as those interested in the histories of gender, sexuality, and affect more generally.
Download or read book Erotica III written by William Wallace and published by Carroll & Graf Pub. This book was released on 1996 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The third illustrated anthology of erotica takes the reader on a journey through four centuries of erotic literature and art. Part one, 'The libertine imagination', fuels libidinous fantasies. Part two, 'Dreams of empire', concentrates on the underground erotica of the Victorians. Part three, 'Decadent visions', moves on to the Edwardian era, spirited pieces with a theatrical background. Part four, 'After the nightmare', features a wide variety of literary styles including the different approaches to erotic writing of a male and a female writer. Part five, 'Fantasy or reality?', brings us up to date and includes same sex writing." "Once more this is an appealing array of literary and artistic erotica, with the emphasis on the dreams and fantasies that all of us indulge in - or would like to."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
