Ideas and practices around sexuality were transformed  as much as any other aspect of society. Religious change, the growth of  empires, educational development, social mobility, the theater and the  printing press, and medical advances all radically reshaped sexuality in  the West. Focusing on texts, images, and social practices, this volume  examines the changing attitudes to sexuality during the Renaissance and  the strategies used both to enforce and subvert public assumptions and  standards. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Cultural History of Sexuality in the Renaissance \u003c\/i\u003epresents  an overview of the period with essays on heterosexuality,  homosexuality, sexual variations, religious and legal issues, health  concerns, popular beliefs about sexuality, prostitution and erotica.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781847888020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Berg Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":40592819847374,"sku":"9781847888020","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_dd0db7ab-d57b-4775-8111-f887af5edfc6.jpg?v=1637774895","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781847888020","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
