European Sexualities, 1400-1800 (New Approaches to European History)
"Recommended."Choice"This book is a welcome addition to the current renaissance of historical interest in sexuality ... A book devoted mainly to debates among historians and summaries of their views could rapidly become tedious, but the extensive quotation from primary sources, mainly in English and French, gives these pages a sparkle. Crawford has read extensively in the literature of the day, and she wears her knowledge in a convincing and unpedantic manner."Journal of Interdisciplinary History"... a welcome addition to the study of Western civilization."Gwendolyn Morgan, Studies in Medieval and Renaissance Teaching
