Sex, Society, and the Making of Pornography : The Pornographic Object of Knowledge, Paperback / softback Book

Sex, Society, and the Making of Pornography : The Pornographic Object of Knowledge Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Hardcore pornographic films combine fantasy and real sex to create a unique genre of entertainment.

Pornographic films are also historical documents that give us access to the sexual behavior and eroticism of different historical periods.

This book shows how the making of pornographic films is a social process that draws on the fantasies, sexual scripts, and sexual identities of performers, writers, directors, and editors to produce sexually exciting videos and movies.

Yet hardcore pornographic films have also created a body of knowledge that constitutes, in this digital age, an enormous archive of sexual fantasies that serve as both a form of sex education and self-help guides.

Sex, Society, and the Making of Pornography focuses on sex and what can be learned about it from pornographic representations.
