Graphos and eros, the two great passions of Pierre Louÿs, made him one of the most prolific authors of his time. Probably many of his manuscripts will never be published, and maybe he wrote lot of them for his own pleasure. Alfter having been recognized with books in compliance with fin de siècle taste, he distanced from symbolist and decadent writers in a kind of libertine literature with no strings attached. His erudition mixed with […]
Al condenar el erotismo, el cristianismo propició que el imaginario lúbrico se concentrara en el infierno, convirtiéndose éste en el cielo de los pecadores, en el paraíso de la lujuria. Artistas de todos los tiempos han ido poblando el inframundo de todo tipo de parafilias, aparentemente para reprobarlas pero en la práctica para satisfacer el apetito escoptofílico de sus mecenas.

I believe […]

Cuando Darger murió y sus caseros descubrieron esas epopeyas íntimas una de […]
The life of Henry Darger was spent between the pages of a book he was writing and illustrating over the years. He called it realms of the unreal and were his only reality, where he found the meaning of his existence in his redemptive role or guardian of the hosts of girls who daily fought against evil forces.
