The Art of Seduction

Product Information

There he met Joost Elffers, the New York book packager and discussed with him his idea for a book on power and manipulation, the ultimate modern version of Machiavelli's The Prince. People are always vulnerable to insinuations like this, which stroke their vanity almost everyone’s weak spot.

The layout is a bit fiddly, with independent stories and classical literature extracts running on the pages' sides while the main text is in the middle - but be patient and do read them all, they're worth it. The Reformed Rake or Siren: They desperately long to escape whatever corralled them in, what is preventing them from being their normal freely sexual self. Many of the tales derive from high-ranking courtly cultures where seduction and romance were bound by rules of conduct that were strict enough to suggest appropriate behavior but not so strict as to introduce bourgeois guilt or shame into the game of sexual conquest.

The Art of Seduction nails when it says that Dandies are likely to be accused of being too masculine -for women- or too feminine -for men-. There is rarely any resentment on their part; they forgive you any kind of manipulation because you have brought them pleasure, a rare commodity in the world. I would add that the transgressive aspects of seduction can allow individuation to both parties – it would often seem that seducers get trapped in the game, while the seduced move on into something different. He says how he slept with a black woman in Africa -but it’s quite easy for white men to sleep with black women in Africa, let alone for an attractive and confident one like Fynn.

However the book ultimately leaves the reader feeling seduced as if they (with the knowledge) could pull off some of the said seductions which is just wrong. Humorous and Machiavellian, this book may shock and disturb you, and your perception of the way people are.Cleverly lead your victim into a crisis, a moment of danger, or indirectly put them in an uncomfortable position, and you can play the rescuer, the gallant knight. As a result of reading this book I am now reading more than I have before about the historical characters mentioned and truly fascinated by what this book has taught me and the world it has opened before me.
