How to order this book
Premodern
Sexualities
offers rigorous new approaches to current problems in the
historiography
of sexuality. From queer readings of early modern medical texts to
transcribing
and interrogating pre-modern documents of sexual transgression, the
contributors
bring together current theoretical discourses of sexuality while
emphasizing
problems in historicist interpretations of early textualizations of
sexuality.
