The Medieval Chastity Belt : A Myth-Making Process PDF
by A. Classen
Part of the The New Middle Ages series
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.
