Description

Explore the evolution of human intimacy with Desire: A History of European Sexuality by Routledge. This comprehensive survey examines how sexual attitudes have shifted from the era of the Greeks through to the modern day. The text tracks the movement of two primary perspectives: the view of desire as a dangerous and disorderly force, and the view of desire as a creative and revolutionary power. Structured chronologically, this book provides a wide-ranging look at the major turning points in European history. Readers can learn about the complexities of sex in ancient Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The narrative also covers significant cultural shifts, such as sexual contact and culture clashes in Spain and colonial Mesoamerica, as well as emerging attitudes toward sexuality in later periods. Whether you are studying social sciences, medical history, or legal developments, this volume offers a deep look into the changing social landscapes of Europe. It serves as a detailed resource for understanding how historical contexts shaped the way societies perceive and regulate human desire.
