Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study eroticism and bitterness in the novel The lady of the camellias. The eroticism of Georges Bataille and The double flame. Love and eroticism by Octavio Paz will be of great support for the methodological framework of this research.

In The lady of the camellias, erotic passion is the painful pleasure that encloses the body and the imagination: the erotic darkness, the recess of the soul. Marguerite Gautier is the courtesan who, paradoxically, embodies love and eroticism, but also reveals the blurred face, the corpse of the parisian society to which she belongs
