This second edition printed the same year as the first edition is the first published work by Marquis de Sade. The original story entitled "Les Infortunes de la Vertu" was composed while he was imprisoned in the Bastille in 1787-1788 but was never published until 1930. Upon his release from imprisonment he much expanded and reworked the story articulating "the voice of a first-person female narration and not only recounts JustineÃs point of view but her vocal stutters and juvenile logorrhea as well." Kristi L. Krumnow Utah State University. "Justine his most famous and influential work a greatly-expanded version of a novella he wrote while in the Bastille is the harrowing story of a 14-year old orphan of uncompromising virtue who over the course of ten years is captured and abused by a succession of amoral libertines. The work reads like a symposium in moral philosophy whose interlocutors all of whom have the same learned voice whether male or female young or old take time out from their discourse for increasingly extravagant and brutal sex scenes presented in the allusive and metaphoric language of the period. Structurally based on Candide in the interminable suffering of the innocent heroine in a world of corruption it argues that those who hold virtue as an ideal are doomed to poverty and abuse while those who acquiesce in vice become rich and successful. The work was so popular that it appeared in seven further editions in the course of ten years. The first edition was not illustrated save for the frontispiece. The second edition which appeared the same year in reduced format but without alteration of the text save for a few lines added to the end of the ìavis de lÃÈditeurî was adorned with twelve engraved illustrations lacking as usual in the present copy."
