This is a major new survey of the social and cultural history of
sexuality in early modern Europe. Within a frame that includes the
Renaissance, the Reformation, the Scientific Revolution, and the
Enlightenment, it weaves together statistical findings, discussions
of changing sexual ideology, and evidence of belief structures
regarding family, religion, science, crime, and deviance. While
broad in overall scope and coverage, the transformations are framed
to highlight the narrative of change over time within each domain.
By emphasizing the interrelationship between practices and
ideological change - in family form, religious organization,
medical logic, legal structures, and notions of deviancy -
Katherine Crawford's accessible survey reveals how these changes
produced the conditions in which our modern notions of sexuality
were developed. This book will be essential reading for students of
early modern European history and the history of sexuality.
