"A. Eulenburg hat wohl noch vor von Schrenck-Notzing darauf aufmerksam gemacht, dass der Begriff der Algolagnie, den er durch die Worte Lagnänomanie (= Sadismus) und Machlänomanie (= Masochismus) ersetzt, sehr viele Ab- und Unterarten umfasst."--Der Marquis de Sade und seine Zeit (1900) by Iwan Bloch
