Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A libertine is one devoid of any restraints, especially one who ignores or even spurns accepted morals and forms of behavior sanctioned by the larger society. The philosophy gained new-found adherents in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, particularly in France and Britain. Notable among these were John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester, and the Marquis de Sade. Libertine , like many words, is an evolving one, defined today as a dissolute person; usually a person who is morally unrestrained . Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand wrote that Joseph Bonaparte sought only life's pleasures and easy access to libertinism while on the throne of Naples.
