The Medieval Chastity Belt : A Myth-Making Process, Paperback / softback Book

The Medieval Chastity Belt : A Myth-Making Process Paperback / softback

Part of the The New Middle Ages series

Paperback / softback

Out of stock

Description

The chastity belt is one of those objects people have commonly identified with the 'dark' Middle Ages.

This book analyzes the origin of this myth and demonstrates how a convenient misconception, or contorted imagination, of an allegedly historical practice has led to profoundly flawed interpretations of control mechanisms used by jealous husbands.
