Utilizing the records of several Venetian courts that dealt with
sex crimes, Ruggiero traces the evolution of both licit and illicit
sexuality during the 14th and 15th centuries. He argues that the
use of such records reveals not only the nature of sexual behaviour
that was considered criminal, but also what society established as
the norm. Through this examination of illicit sexuality, Ruggiero
sheds light on the institutions, languages, social life and values
not only of this shadow-culture, but also of Venetian society and,
ultimately, the Renaissance itself.
