Within this space you will find updates, drafts, and thoughts on my BDSM & Literature paper. No, I'm not doing this for any class. I'm <i>doing it for fun</i>. <br /><br />Right now, the paper is still in the very early stages of research and trying out different topics. Current contenders:<br /><br />1) The evolution of BDSM in literature from the Marquis de Sade to Jacqueline Carey.<br /><br />2) The synthesis of mythology, religion, history, fantasy, and sex/BDSM in Jacqueline Carey's <i>Kushiel's Legacy</i> series.<br /><br />3) Feminism & BDSM in modern literature.<br /><br />4) Love As Thou Wilt: BDSM & polyamory in <i>Kushiel's Legacy</i>.<br /><br />Questions, constructive criticism, and comments are both welcome and appreciated. http://mo-thinks.livejournal.com/632.html contemplative public 0
