Modernism and Perversion (eBook, PDF)

Sexual Deviance in Sexology and Literature, 1850-1930

Beschreibung

Charting the construction of sexual perversions in nineteenth- and early twentieth-century medical, psychiatric and psychological discourse, Schaffner argues that sexologists' preoccupation with these perversions was a response to specifically modern concerns, and illuminates the role of literary texts in the formation of sexological knowledge.
