In her book, the American literary scholar Camille Paglia conducts a genuine revision of Western literature from Antiquity to the 1900s. The essence of her concept is that all European art is an area of conflict between chaos and order, sexuality and taboo. According to the author, art is the most accurate projection of everyday life, in which the same principles operate, which is why it allows you to penetrate deeper into the essence of the processes taking place around us. Paglia supports his views with a detailed and original analysis of the key works of world classics: Shakespeare’s dramas, Blake’s poetic cycles, Balzac’s novels, Wilde’s comedies and many others.
