Framing Premodern Desires – Sexual Ideas, Attitudes, and Practices in Europe: Crossing Boundaries: Turku Medieval and Early Modern Studies
Autor Satu Lidman, Tom Linkinen, Meri Heinonen, Marjo Kaartinen, Garthine Walkeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 apr 2017
The way that we have perceived, described, and understood sexual desire has changed dramatically over time and across cultures. This collection brings together a group of leading scholars from a variety of disciplines to explore the history of sexual desires and the transformation of sexual ideas, attitudes, and practices in premodern Europe. Among topics considered are the visibility of sexual offenses and the construction of passions; the geographical range extends to Great Britain, with extended attention also to France and Germany. The result is a groundbreaking volume that adds significantly to our understanding of premodern European history, history of sexualities, gender studies, religious history, and many other fields.
