Sumario:Departing from the works of Pierre Klossowski, Michel Foucault and Jean-Claude Milner, we propose to quickly characterize Western sexuality through three symbolic assumptions. Such assumptions are: cannibalism, blasphemy and prostitution. The first helps us characterize the discourse of sexuality in the classical Greco-Latin era; the second, that of medieval times; and the third, that of the modern era. The intention is to link three works that have dealt either literary or philosophically with sexuality in the West; and that they have also influenced each other.
