More about the book
What did the Victorians think about sex? What was the reality of their sexual behaviour? What wider concepts - biological, political, religious - influenced their sexual moralism? A lively and fascinating synthesis of a wealth of new research, The Making of Victorian Sexuality expertly disrupts our present comfortable consensus on nineteenth-century society. Moreover, it persuasively argues that the Victorians may have much to teach the libertarian twentieth-century.
