What does obscene mean? What does it have to say about the means
through which meaning is produced and received in literary,
artistic and, more broadly, social acts of representation and
interaction? Early modern France and Europe faced these questions
not only in regard to the political, religious and artistic
reformations for which the Renaissance stands, but also in light of
the reconfiguration of its mediasphere in the wake of the invention
of the printing press. The Politics of Obscenity brings together
researchers from Europe and the United States in offering scholars
of early modern Europe a detailed understanding of the implications
and the impact of obscene representations in their relationship to
the Gutenberg Revolution which came to define Western modernity.
