«Les Kâma Sûtra» is the classic essay on love and eroticism by Vatsyayana, published by J'ai Lu in paperback (156 pages, in French).
Treatise of ancient India attributed to Vatsyayana, a work that approaches love as an art integrating the physical, the emotional and the spiritual. It teaches techniques of seduction, foreplay, caresses, kisses and lovemaking positions, and shows how sexuality is elevated to a sacred dimension in its cultural context, the beliefs and the morality of its era.
The original title, in Sanskrit, means aphorisms of desire; this 1997 French edition contains the complete text.
Aimed at an adult audience interested in Eastern philosophy, the history of India and eroticism as a cultural manifestation.
Vātsyāyana was an ancient Indian philosopher, known for authoring the Kama Sutra. He lived in India during the second or third century CE, probably in Pataliputra.
