Cultural Theory. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author and no quotation from it or information derived from it may be published without proper acknowledgement. Abstract My project traces the interrelated discourses of eroticism, modernism and transgression in the twentieth century through a nexus of thinkers, writers and architects focused around the French theorist and pornographic writer Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx (1897-1962). My aim is to consider what it means to think of eroticism as a transgression, and what transgression might look like. The topics of eroticism and transgression demand an interdisciplinary approach, and my thesis responds to this need through analysis of cultural theories, literature and architecture. Xxxxxxxx, X. X. Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxx and Xx Xxxxxxxxx were contemporaries who explored similar ideas through different disciplines and using different language. My thesis draws them together to explore these similarities and what they reveal about the different disciplines, their relationship to one another, and their relationship to eroticism and transgression. My method involves close theoretical readings of Xxxxxxxx’s texts – chiefly Eroticism, but also The Accursed Share, History of Eroticism, Theory of Religion and selected essays and fiction – to develop a rigorous reading of Xxxxxxxx’s notion of erotic transgression. This notion and related ideas of expenditure, sacrifice and poetry provide the basis for original analysis of the literary motifs and language used by Xxxxxxxx and Xxx who, like Xxxxxxxx, were concerned with writing eroticism. The importance of the sites of eroticism in fiction by all three writers and the structure of the language they use reveals a connection between their erotics, and between transgression and architecture. I explore this connection further by analysing the ideas and productions of architects who have openly engaged with Xxxxxxxx’s thinking, focusing on Xx Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx. I examine the possibility of transgression and poetry in architecture, and what the relationship between literary and architectural modes of transgression reveals about eroticism.
