    Sadism/Masochism: Word first coined


    Fanciful representation of the Marquis de Sade, for it has not been established that the man did practise sadism.

    Just as Sacher-Masoch gave his name to masochism so the Marquis de Sade gave his name to sadism. There is controversy as to the extent to which de Sade was a practising sadist. Did he in reality act out his fantasies or were his novels the main vehicles for his sexual imaginings? De Sade like Sacher-Masoch, wrote books of merit; yet he is not remembered for these. The world inevitably associates him with sexual "perversion," but such a thing only touches part of the man - in addition to whatever sexual propensities he had he also possessed considerable political and philosophical stature. His life is a depressing catalogue of frustration, thwarted ambition, and imprisonment.
