Abstract

There is in Sade an heterodox theory of literature. It is well know that his work does not disdain the reflection on God, the soul, nature, politics, law or desire, but all of them seem to have as final aim a formal concretion within a fiction that questions and problematizes the relevance of such concepts in their pragmatic relationship with the outside. In this sense we are interested in reviewing a series of non-fictional texts written by the Marquis that illuminate or give a new perspective to his work, as they fundamentally discuss the image of absolute or pure fictions, restoring them to their immediate production context. In fact, this is our hypothesis: there is in Sade a denial with respect to the French Revolution, conscious rejection that moves, transformed to the work. But not only that: literature itself, as it is theoretically proposed by the author himself, seems to echo the sovereignty achieved in the general level, but also its limits, its excesses, its retractions.
