The word sadisme is formally lexicalized in Boistes Dictionnaire universel. Publication of Krat-Ebings Psychopathia sexualis, where, together with masochism, the word sadism acquired authority as a scientic term. The publication by Eugen Dhren Iwan Bloch of the newly discovered Days of Sodom marks the beginning of serious intellectual interest in the writings of Sade.

Guillaume Apollinaire publishes a selection of Sades works, calls him the freest spirit, and predicts that he will dominate the twentieth century. W is ordinarily termed a novel or roman is a work of imagination inspired by the most extraordinary occurrences in the lives of men.

But why should this kind of composition be called a roman? In which nation should we look for its beginnings, and which are the best-known examples? And what, lastly, are the rules which must be followed if perfection is to be attained in the art of writing them?

These are the three questions with which we propose to deal. Let us begin by considering the etymology of the word. Since there is nothing to indicate by what name such compositions were known to the peoples of antiquity, we should, it seems to me, attempt to discover why it was rst given in France the name we give it still. As is well known, the Romance language was a mixture of Celtic speech and Latin, and was in use during the rst two dynasties of the kings of France.

You will seek in vain an alternative etymology for the word, and since common sense oers no other possibility, it seems simplest to adopt it. Let us now consider the second question. Standard opinion attributes its beginnings to the Greeks, from whom it was inherited by the Arabs, who passed it to the Spaniards, who transmitted it to our troubadours, from whom it was adopted by the authors of our old tales of chivalry.

Now while I see merit in this lineage, and sometimes nd it convenient to use it myself, I am, however, most reluctant to apply it. For surely such a linear process is dicult to impose on an age when travel was virtually unknown and communication so uncertain? There are fashions, customs, and tastes which do not need to be transmitted, since they are innate in all peoples and are by nature inseparable from the communities which give rise to them.

Wherever men exist there are to be found inescapable traces of the same tastes, customs, and fashions. Let us be in no doubt: it was in those lands which rst acknowledged the existence of gods that novels rst emerged, which consequently means in Egypt, patently the cradle of all religions. No sooner did men suspect the existence of immortal beings than they made them act and speak. Hence, from that moment on, all the metamorphoses, fables, parables, and novelsin short, all the works of untruth which took hold once untruth gripped the minds of men.

This explains, once such fanciful notions took root, the appearance of books of fables. Once peoples, at rst under the direction of priests, began slaughtering each other in the name of their nonexistent divinities and then took up arms for king or country, the honour attached to heroism challenged the tribute paid to superstition.

Not only were heroes very sensibly raised to take the place of gods, but the children of Mars were immortalized in song as once the children of heaven had been celebrated. The great deeds they had done were greatly exaggerated. Or perhaps when people wearied of them, they invented other personages who resembled them Hercules1 was a great military leader who assuredly fought valiantly against his enemies: such a hero belonged to history. The Hercules who slew monsters and cleft giants in twain was a god, the fabulous shape and form of superstitionbut a kind of superstition which was rational, since its purpose was to reward heroism: it was the gratitude accorded to those who had liberated a nation.

Whereas the superstition which spawned non-created beings which had no material shape, grew out of the fears and hopes of deranged minds. Hercoule was the term which designated an army general, and this gave rise to many Hercoules. Subsequently, fables attributed the miraculous exploits of several to one such man.

See Pelloutiers History of the Celts. In this way, each people had its gods and its demigods, its heroes, its true histories, and its myths. Thus, as we have seen, a thing might be true in terms of its heroes.

But the rest was fabricated, legendary, a work of invention, a roman, because the gods spoke only through the mouths of certain men who, having much to gain from this absurd business, duly proceeded to invent the language of the spirits out of their own heads, using anything they considered suitable for convincing or frightening, in other words, anything that was mythical.

Here is irrefutable evidence for concluding that the second are derived from the rst. Thus were novels written in every tongue, in every nation, which in style and specics were based upon both the manners of each nation and the opinions adopted by those nations. Man is subject to two failings inseparable from his very existence which is dened by them. Everywhere he must pray and he must also loveand there you have the basic stu of all novels.

Men wrote novels in order to show beings whom they petitioned; and they wrote novels to celebrate those whom they loved. The rst kind, composed out of terror or hope, could not be other than brooding, sprawling, full of untruth and invention: such are those which Ezra chronicled during the captivity of Babylon. The second type is marked by rened taste and ne sentiments: such is Heliodorus Theagenes and Chariclea.

So we should not attach much importance to the business of locating the origin of this kind of writing in one nation in preference to another. We must allow ourselves to be convinced by what has just been said, viz. And now we pass to a brief consideration of the nations which have given the warmest welcome to this type of composition, of the works themselves, and of those who composed them. We shall then bring the story up to our own times, so that readers may be in a position to formulate their own views of the matter by comparison.

Aristides of Miletus is the earliest novelist mentioned by the writers of antiquity. Not one of his works, however, has survived. All we know is that his stories were called the Milesian Tales. A passage in the preface to The Golden Ass would seem to conrm that Aristides was a licentious author: It is in this style that I shall write, says Apuleius at the outset of his Golden Ass.

For, not content with sending his heroes forth to travel through familiar lands, as Diogenes had done, he packs them o to the moon and then to hell.

Very few of these works are known today. After them we had the exploits of Charlemagne, attributed to Turpin, and all the romances of the Round Table, Tristan, Lancelot, Perce-Forts, all written with a view to immortalizing real heroes or inventing new ones based on them who, since they were embroidered by the imagination, outshone the originals in the wonders they performed.

What barbarity, what coarseness followed the novels of such taste and agreeable invention for which the Greeks had supplied the model!

For while. Next followed the troubadours, and although they should be considered poets rather than novelists, the very large number of engaging prose tales which they composed nonetheless justly qualies them to sit alongside the kind of writers of whom we speak. If conrmation of this is required, the reader has only to glance at the fabliaux which they wrote in the romance language during the reign of Hugues Capet, and which were avidly copied in Italy.

The rst appeared in that country at about the same time as our troubadours, whom they imitated, emerged in France. We do not inch from taking pride in this: it was not the Italians, who were our masters in this art, as La Harpe p.

On the contrary, it was in France that they mastered it. It was from our troubadours that Dante, Boccaccio, Tassoni, and even to some extent Petrarch learned to draft the stories they told. Nearly all the tales of Boccaccio were taken from fabliaux written in France. The Spaniards wrote delightful novels which were imitated by our authors.

We shall return to them. A frenzy of imitation then took hold of all those to whom nature had given a taste for this kind of writing.

The astounding success of LAstre, which still had readers as late as the middle of this century, went to everyones head, and it was much imitated but never equalled. Mademoiselle de Scudry committed the same blunder as her brother. Like him, she attempted. The same defects recur in her Cllie, where she gives the Romans, whom she misrepresents, all the excesses of the models which she imitated and which were never more garbled than they were by her.

Certainly, if chivalry had inspired novelists here in France, to what pitch of excitement had it not also made heads spin on the other side of the Pyrenees? The catalogue of Don Quixotes library, amusingly drawn up by Miguel Cervants, denes it exactly.

His immortal work, known the whole world over, translated into every language, and to be identied as the very rst novel of all, possesses to a greater degree than all the rest the art of storytelling, of linking adventures in the most agreeable fashion, and in particular of combining instruction and entertainment. The same authors twelve exemplary tales, full of interest, wit, and subtlety, conrm the place of this famous Spaniard in the front rank.

Without him, perhaps we might never have had either Scarrons delightful novel nor most of those of Le Sage. And in becoming more succinct, she became more interesting. It has been said, because she was a woman as though her sex, naturally more delicate and more suited for the writing of novels,. Ah, indulgent, charming lady, since the graces held your pen, why was not Cupid on occasion allowed to direct it?

Then came Fnelon, who tried to make himself interesting by reading a poetic lesson to his sovereigns, who paid no attention to it. Tender lover of Madame Guyon, your soul needed to love and your mind to write. Had you abandoned pedantry, I mean the arrogant urge to teach kings their business, you would have given us masterpieces instead of one book which no one reads any more.

Tlmaque, which survived for only a hundred years, will perish under the ruins of its century which is now no more; but your actors from Le Mans, dear, kindly child of folly, will amuse even the soberest readers as long as there are men on this earth. Towards the end of the same century the daughter of the celebrated Poisson, Madame Gomez, composed works which were no less amusing for all that they were written in a very dierent ink from that used by the writers of her sex who had preceded her.

Her Journes amusantes, like her Cent nouvelles nouvelles, despite their numerous defects, will remain the perpetual core of the libraries of lovers of storytelling.

Gomez was mistress of her artno one should refuse her a commendation she so richly deserved. Their writings, brimming with delicacy and taste, unquestionably do honour to their sex.

But let us return to the century where we left it, for we felt impelled to praise these admirable women who gave men so many good lessons in novel-writing. Finding it simpler to amuse or corrupt women than to serve them or place them upon pedestals, they created events, dramatic scenes, and conversations which reected the spirit of the times more faithfully.

They wrapped cynicism and immorality in an agreeable, playful, and sometimes even philosophical style, and at least pleased their readers if they did not instruct them. Crbillon published Le Sopha, Tanza, Les garements du cur et de lesprit, etc. All were novels which attered vice and made mock of virtue, yet when they appeared they were able to aspire to the greatest success. Appendices include the denunciatory review of the.

A skilled and artful story-teller, Marquis de Sade's is also an intellectual who asks questions about society, about ourselves, and about life. Psychologically astute and defiantly unconventional, these stories show Sade at.
