Résumé
"Les crimes de l'amour" by Marquis de Sade is a collection of erotic narratives written in the late 18th century. The work explores historical and romantic themes, showcasing the author's signature focus on the darker aspects of love, desire, and human nature. Central to the opening portion is the character Juliette de Castelnau, a young woman of exceptional beauty and courage, who becomes entangled in the turbulent political and religious conflicts of France during the 16th century, especially concerning her father and her love for Raunai. The opening of the narrative sets the stage in France post the Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis, highlighting internal conflicts exacerbated by religious divisions. Juliette's father, the Baron de Castelnau, is imprisoned due to his Protestant beliefs, and Juliette is determined to save him, revealing her fierce commitment to both her faith and family. Through a series of dramatic encounters, including Juliette's negotiation with the Duke of Guise, the text introduces themes of sacrifice, love, and moral dilemmas as Juliette faces the grim prospect of having to choose between her father's life and her own desires. This entanglement promises a complex exploration of the intersections between passion and violence, fidelity and betrayal, inherent in Sade's provocative style.
