英语词汇sadism的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

sadism. Marquis Donatien Alphonse François de Sade (1740–1814) seems to have emerged a full-blown “fanatic of vice,” the “philosopher of vice,” and professeur de crime that Michelet and Taine called him. When it happened, how it hap- pened, would stymie a panel composed of Freud, Jung, Job, and the living Buddha. De Sade’s upbringing was a factor, as were the licentious times in which he lived, his long years in prison, and perhaps there was even an organic problem. There is sim- ply not enough reliable information available about de Sade— all his voluminous diaries were burned—and to try to make biography from a writer’s fiction is fruitless. Sometimes his in- sights were deep and remarkable, but his was in the main a dis- ordered, deranged mind reflected in his life and licentious work. Sadism, the derivation of satisfaction or pleasure from the infliction of pain on others, can be sexual in nature or stem from a variety of motives, including frustration or feelings of inferiority. De Sade’s life indicates that many such causes mold- ed his twisted personality. His final testament read in part: “The ground over my grave should be sprinkled with acorns so that all traces of my grave shall disappear so that, as I hope, this reminder of my existence may be wiped from the memory of mankind.” See also masochism.
