By the time I was sixteen I had read a number of books that had erotic elements in them, but I had not read any thing that I would consider erotic literature. Then, I came across a curious work with the curious title "Pleasures and Follies of a Good-Natured Libertine" with the sub-title...

I am currently reading the novel Frank and I written in the early twentieth century by an anonymous author. One of the amazing things to me is the literary quality of the erotic works of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Frank and I is a work of literature. It's not porn. It is...

I was about fifteen (I started late) when I read my first Victorian work of erotica. I was captivated by both the erotic nature of it and the literary quality of it. That writer (and I've forgotten who it was) knew how to write. She (Yes, it was woman!)was a very good writer, albeit a little...

I'm curious how many people have read this erotic work. It's the first literary work of erotica. It was written in the late 18th century.

Some would claim that you must start with the Marquis De Sade if you want to read the first "modern" erotic writing. I do not dispute that De Sade was the first modern ponrographic writer. But De Sade did not write erotica. His writings are not erotic. Take "Justine," for example--probably De...

By no stretch can the Satyricon be considered the first erotic work. It can't even be considered an erotic work. For one thing, the work only exists in fragments; for another thing, the Satyricon contains some bawdy tales and homosexual adventures, but no erotica. And there is a big difference...

I'm just curious. Can certain comic books be considered erotic or pornographic?--in the classic sense? I've seen some erotic comics that I would consider classical erotica. But maybe they're not considered erotic in the classic sense. I don't know--I'm just asking.

Erotica has been written for thousands of years. There are numerous erotic works that were written prior to the eighteenth century. But these works were either in the form of poetry—such as Sappho’s or Ovid’s or Catullus’s poetry, or prose poems such as the Song of Solomon in the Bible, or...

This story is one of many from The Pearl, that I shall be sharing with you over the coming weeks. Most do not have an accredited author. SUB-UMBRA OR SPORT AMONG THE SHENOODLES.
