Stone Age man invented it, the Sumerians exalted it, the Christians banned it, and Freud got it wrong. Over the last century, castration has meant loss of manhood. But at earlier points in Western history, Gary Taylor argues, it was a mark of power and divinity. Castration is a lively history of the meaning, function, and act of castration from its place in the early church to its secular reinvention in the Renaissance, as a spiritualized form of masculinity to its 20th century position at the core of psychoanalysis.
