The History of Sexuality in Europe: A Sourcebook and Reader is a
dynamic introduction to the latest debates in the history of
Sexuality in Europe. It begins with an introduction, "The Magnetic
Poetry Kit of Sex," that surveys the field of sexuality and
introduces the new concept of sexual grammar. The Reader focuses on
the modern age, but has three chapters on the ancient and medieval
world to demonstrate their very different cultures of sexuality.
Each section of the Reader pairs the latest chapters and articles
by experts with primary sources, addressing questions such as: Why
did ancient Greek philosophers and medieval Islamic poets celebrate
men's desire for each other? Was Jesus a queer eunuch? Were
Victorians sexually repressed? How did nonwestern cultures change
some Europeans' ideas about sex? Does regulating prostitution
protect or punish women who sell sex? How did sexologists learn
from feminists, and men and women who desired those of the same
sex? Were 60s feminists pro or anti sex? An essential collection
for all students of the history of sexuality.
