Więcej o książce
How have society's values and attitudes toward sexuality and morality evolved over the centuries? This anthology presents a diverse range of essays that explore the historical and contemporary regulation of sexuality in Europe from the fifteenth century to today. It addresses crucial issues such as incest, infanticide, women's sexuality, female prostitution, pornography, reproductive politics, and the early homosexual rights movement, as well as the impact of AIDS. Contributions from prominent scholars across various disciplines enrich this collection. Notable essays include Randolph Trumbach's examination of gender and identity in Enlightenment London, Ruth Perry's analysis of sexuality and maternity in eighteenth-century England, and Theo van der Meer's insights into female same-sex offenders in late eighteenth-century Amsterdam. Additionally, Robin Ann Sheets discusses the connections between pornography and fairy tales, while James W. Jones explores discourses surrounding AIDS in West Germany during the late 1980s. This anthology offers the latest scholarship in a significant and expanding field, making it essential reading for students and faculty involved in social history, family history, women's and gender studies, gay studies, sociology, and literature.
