[Spanish] - Fantasmas: Una exhortación contra Dios
"El relato 'Fantasmas, (Una Exhortación Contra Dios)', es uno de los textos contenidos en los 'Cuadernos Personales' del Marqués de Sade escritos en 1802, mientras estaba encarcelado en Bicétre, institución mitad manicomio mitad cárcel, conocida como 'La Bastilla de los Canallas'. Esta obra es una exploración de la negación de la existencia de Dios y una crítica feroz a la religión y la moral tradicional. Sade cuestiona y desafía las creencias religiosas y propone una visión atea y hedonista del mundo, argumentando en contra de las estructuras de poder religioso y social. Es un ejemplo de su enfoque radical y subversivo en la literatura."
Marqués De Sade (Author), Artur Mas (Narrator)

"Discover a new version of Marquis de Sade's most famous and outrageous masterpieces: 'Philosophy in the Bedroom' (La philosophie dans le boudoir), 'Justine, or The Misfortunes of Virtue' and 'The 120 Days of Sodom'. Philosophy in the Bedroom (La philosophie dans le boudoir) was written in 1795 by the Marquis de Sade, while imprisoned in the Bastille. It is a work of extreme pornography, laced with socio-political suversion. The main characters are libertines, who decided to give a young maiden their own brand of sex education. They explain to her that pleasure is the most important goal of all, and then proceed with affirming that she will not be able to feel 'true pleasure' without pain. Then they get down to the practical lessons. Justine, or The Misfortunes of Virtue, is an early work by the Marquis de Sade. It is a novella, written in two weeks while he was imprisoned in the Bastille. Unlike some of his other works, it is not just a catalogue of sadism. It is meant to bring new life to an old genre, which had the reader accustomed to see virtue eventually triumph after trials only meant to bring out its value. Sade would have none of that in Justine: in her quest for virtue, the main character keeps falling into terrible situations, which humiliate her and present her with sexual lessons hidden under the mask of virtue. She seeks refuge and confession in a monastery... All of this is narrated by Justine herself, on her way to the gallocks. Napoleon Bonaparte ordered the arrest of the anonymous author of Justine and Juliette, and as a result Sade was incarcerated for the last 13 years of his life. The book's destruction was ordered by the Cour Royale de Paris on May 19, 1815. The 120 Days of Sodom is 'the most impure tale that has ever been told since our world began'. It was written by the Marquis de Sade, in the space of 37 days, while imprisoned in the Bastille. Fearing confiscation, he had to write it on a continuous roll of paper, made up of small pieces glued together. - -"

They explain to her that pleasure is the most important goal of all, and then proceed with affirming that she will not be able to feel 'true pleasure' without pain. Then they get down to the practical lessons. This book is full of extremely graphic and shocking descriptions, willfully obscene and violent to the reader; it is also an argument in favour of libertinism, with a demonstration on how it is the only way of thinking reinforcing the recent French Revolution, and that if it fails to penetrate the people of France, they are in grave danger of returning to a monarchic state."

Justine, or The Misfortunes of Virtue
"Henry IV of France, also known as the 'Good King Henry', was King of France from 1589 to 1610. Born a Catholic but raised a Protestant, he barely escaped assassination in the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre, and later led Protestant forces against the royal army, before being called to the French succession upon the death of his cousin Henry III. As a pragmatic and unusually tolerant king, he promulgated the Edict of Nantes (1598), which guaranteed religious liberties to Protestants, thereby effectively ending the Wars of Religion. Learn all about the achievements of his reign, how he gained popularity despite being considered an usurper, and achieved repeated victories on his enemies. This collection of audiobooks will help you understand a crucial part of the history of French monarchy. For each King, you will find a detailed description of the style of his reign and his political achievements, narrated in a lively way."

[Spanish] - Diálogo Entre un Sacerdote y un Moribundo
"Esta obra escrita en 1782 trata sobre la hipocresía, la moral y las buenas costumbres, y en la misma, el Marqués de Sade se declara ateo. Es un tenso diálogo entre un sacerdote que le pide a un moribundo que se arrepienta de sus pecados. El moribundo débil y agonizante se niega a arrepentirse y a olvidarse de aquello que para él son recuerdos de su vida y su andar por el mundo y va rebatiendo, uno por uno, los débiles argumentos expuestos por el cura. El sacerdote trata de hacerlo recapacitar y que entienda que sólo dejando entrar a Dios en su corazón podrá ser absuelto y perdonado para que pueda morir dignamente como cristiano. En este texto queda en evidencia el sarcasmo y la lógica mordaz características del marqués de Sade, quien una vez más asume el papel de violador de tabúes. Este controvertido pensador se define, a través de su obra y de sus actos, como un defensor de la inmoralidad como tendencia ineludible del ser humano."

[Spanish] - Agustina De Villeblanche O La Estratagema Del Amor (Completo)
"Agustina de Villeblanche plantea el tema de la homosexualidad de una forma natural, atrevida y espontánea. El filósofo y autor francés nos muestra a través de la joven, bella y rica Agustina, una moral realmente comprometida en la Francia de finales del siglo XVIII; sin embargo, el ingenio del marqués consigue conquistarnos con un relato que rebosa simpatía, amor por la vida y sus pequeños placeres."
Marqués De Sade (Author), Estela Frank (Narrator)

[Spanish] - La filosofía en el tocador
"Considerada originalmente como una novela pornográfica, La filosofía en el tocador ha sido también interpretada como una obra de comentario socio-político. Marqués de Sade narra la historia de una niña de quince años que a petición de su padre, es instruida por partidarios del libertinaje en cómo perder todas las enseñanzas provenientes de la virtud. De Sade critica en este texto a la postura de los franceses post-monárquicos frente a la religión y la moralidad, postulando que si no se pierden estos elementos innecesarios y dañinos hacia la condición humana, Francia caerá nuevamente en las manos de la monarquía. Atrévete a escuchar esta escalofriante novela escrita por el filósofo francés en el cual se origina la palabra sadismo."
Marqués De Sade (Author), Varios Narradores (Narrator)
