description

The eighteenth century witnessed the birth of the first recognisably modern sexual identities. This book charts the development of those identities through the examination of pornography, sexual practice, medical belief, social policy and the cultures of homosexuality, lesbianism and heterosexuality. It concludes that the century saw a sexual revolution in which sexual practice itself changed.
