The Boundaries of Eros : Sex Crime and Sexuality in Renaissance Venice Hardback
by Guido (Professor of History, Professor of History, University of Connecticut) Ruggiero
Part of the Studies in the History of Sexuality series
Hardback
Description
Utilizing the records of several Venetian courts that dealt with sex crimes, Ruggiero traces the evolution of both licit and illicit sexuality during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.
Through this examination of illicit sexuality, Ruggiero sheds light on the institutions, languages, social life, and values not only of this shadow-culture, but also of Venetian society and, ultimately, the Renaissance itself.
