Does anyone know the history of BDSM? Like, where did it originate, and when was it created?

BDSM is an abbreviation for "Bondage Domination Submission And Masochism".
Here's a definition of it from a wikipedia article:
BDSM
50 Shades of Grey

For some reason, this topic reminds me of that Queen song called Body Language:

From what I recall the BDSM we know today most likely came from the good old Marquis de Sade circa 1760 - 1814.
Marquis de Sade - Wikipedia
By all accounts he pretty much wrote the book on the genre.
Being a pervie intellectual he was undoubtedly influenced by the Marquis, to an extent.
And then I moved in
I think there are much older S/m works than Sade's. I can't name any though.
Much of Mediaeval Catholicism comes to mind.
You all took the time to read all of this stuff? What a bunch of masochists!

Didn't need to, as I already knew, just verified my thinking with wiki before posting. De Sade was a pretty twisted fellow.
