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.
