Marquise Isabelle de Merteuil 2 episodes, Madame Maria de Tourvel 2 episodes, Madame de Rosemonde 2 episodes, Antoine Gercourt 2 episodes, Madame Volanges 2 episodes, Raphael Danceny 2 episodes, Analysis of Les Liaisons Dangereuses | Paris Update Les Liaisons Dangereuses is the story of the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont, two narcissistic rivals and ex-lovers who use seduction as a weapon to socially control and exploit others, all the while enjoying their cruel games and boasting about their talent for manipulation. However, it has also been described as merely a story about two completely amoral people. As an epistolary novelthe book is composed entirely of letters written by the various characters to each other. In particular, the letters between Valmont and the Marquise drive the plot, with those of their victims and other characters serving as contrasting figures to give the story its depth. Les Liaisons Dangereuses Vicomte de Valmont is determined to seduce the virtuous, married, and therefore inaccessible Madame de Tourvel, who is staying with Valmont's aunt while her husband is away on a court case. Valmont refuses, finding the challenge too easy and preferring to devote himself to seducing Madame de Tourvel. Merteuil promises Valmont that if he seduces Madame de Tourvel Les Liaisons Dangereuses provides her with written proof of seduction, she will spend the night with him. He expects rapid success, but does not find it as easy as his many other conquests. Meanwhile, Merteuil takes Danceny as her lover. By the time Valmont has Les Liaisons Dangereuses in seducing Madame de Tourvel, he seems to have fallen in love with her. Jealous, Merteuil tricks him into deserting Madame de Tourvel—and reneges on her promise of spending the night with him. Danceny and Valmont dueland Valmont is fatally wounded. Before he dies, he gives Danceny the letters proving Merteuil's own involvement. These letters are sufficient to ruin her reputation so she flees to the countryside, where she contracts smallpox. Her face is left permanently Les Liaisons Dangereuses and she is rendered blind in one eye, Les Liaisons Dangereuses she loses her greatest asset: her beauty. Les Liaisons dangereuses is celebrated for its exploration of seductionrevengeand human malice Les Liaisons Dangereuses, presented in the form of fictional letters collected and published by a fictional author. The book was viewed as scandalous at the time of its initial publication, though the real intentions Les Liaisons Dangereuses the author remain unknown. However, this theory has been questioned on several grounds. Secondly, all the characters in the Les Liaisons Dangereuses are aristocrats, including the virtuous ones like Madame de Tourvel and Madame de Rosemonde. Finally, many royalist and conservative figures enjoyed the book, including Queen Marie Antoinettewhich suggests that—despite its scandalous Les Liaisons Dangereuses was not viewed as a political work until the French Revolution made it appear as such, with the benefit of hindsight. Almost everyone who has written about it has noted how perfunctory are the wages of sin Malraux writes that the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont are creations "without precedent"; they are "the first [in European literature] whose acts are determined by an ideology". In a manner, Les Liaisons dangereuses is a literary counterthesis to the epistolary novel as exemplified by Richardson 's Pamela; or, Virtue Rewarded. Whereas Richardson uses the technique of letters to provide the reader with a feeling of knowing the protagonist's true and intimate thoughts, Laclos' use of this literary device is exactly opposite: by presenting the reader with grossly conflicting views from the same writer when addressing different recipients, it is left to the reader to reconcile story, intentions and characters behind the letters.

The epistolary novel was particularly popular in the 18th century in both France and Britain. Samuel Richardson had already published his Pamela and Clarissawhich Laclos certainly knew about. The major difference between the Rousseau and Laclos texts, however, is in the way each writer exploits the letter format. While Rousseau only includes letters exchanged between two lovers, Laclos Les Liaisons Dangereuses

    THE INFLUENCE OF NEOCONSERVATISM IN THE DEPICTION OF VIOLENT NON-NORMATIVE WOMEN IN EROTIC THRILLERS FROM 1980 TO 2000 by ILANA SLAVIT A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2020 An Abstract of the Thesis of Ilana Slavit for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2020 Title: The Influence of Neoconservatism in the Depiction of Non-normative Women in Erotic Thrillers from 1980 to 2000 Approved: Peter Alilunas Primary Thesis Advisor U.S. erotic thrillers of the 1980s and 1990s are intrinsically intertwined with the socio-political history of the culture wars. Both the counter-culture movements and a laxation of cinematic censorship during the 1960s resulted in an increase in sex and violence on-screen, in addition to non-normative behavior. Thus, the culture wars began, with neoconservatives and antifeminists in the late 1970s to the 1990s pushing for traditional family values against a backdrop of loosening social mores. Violent non- normative women in erotic thrillers of the 1980s and 1990s highlighted antifeminist sentiments of the era through literalization of non-normative lifestyles as dangerous to traditional family values and U.S. culture. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Alilunas for his guidance with film history and analysis, in addition to textual and formatting suggestions from a media studies lens. I would also like to thank Professor Millán for helping me to fully examine the film history from an intersectional feminist theory perspective.
