whats the difference between erotica and pornography?

Answer 1

Here's the two definitions. Erotica is to arouse sexual desire, was as pornographys primary purpose is to cause sexual arousal. So in my opinion erotica would be more on the line as extra sexy, something that would arouse sexual desire without the sight of sex and nudity.
