Crimes of love. Marquis de Sad

What is a person living the idea of ​​absolute freedom? And what do people become not limited by morality and laws? The French thinker, a freedom and a scandalous writer Marquis de Sad is a man not thoughtlessly succumbed to vice, but consciously obeyed his original instincts and transferred this philosophy to the pages of his works. The collection of “Crimes of Love” included short stories from the same cycle de Sad: “Double Test”, “Florville and Kurval, or Fatalism”, “Ernestine” and “Eugene de Franval”. All these stories are united by a common tragic theme and madness of passions. The heroes of the short stories, obsessed with the subject of their frenzied desire, are capable of the most insidious atrocities, and it turns out to be the most natural thing for them - to give in all the gusts that nature inspires.
