Book Description
Erotic literature comprises fictional and factual stories and accounts of eros (passionate, romantic or sexual relationships) intended to arouse similar feelings in readers.This contrasts erotica, which focuses more specifically on sexual feelings. Other common elements are satire and social criticism. Much erotic literature features erotic art, illustrating the text. Although cultural disapproval of erotic literature has always existed, its circulation was not seen as a major problem before the invention of printing, as the costs of producing individual manuscripts limited distribution to a very small group of wealthy and literate readers. The invention of printing, in the 15th century, brought with it both a greater market and increasing restrictions, including censorship and legal restraints on publication on the grounds of obscenity. Because of this, much of the production of this type of material became clandestine. Michel Millot. The School of Venus John Cleland. Fanny Hill Daniel Defoe. Moll Flanders Marquis de Sade. The 120 Days of Sodom D. H. Lawrence. Lady Chatterley's Lover Leopold von Sacher-Masoch. Venus in Furs Anonymous. The Lustful Turk Anonymous. The Romance of Lust Anonymous. Autobiography of a Flea Anonymous. The Way of a Man with a Maid Anonymous. The Nunnery Tales Jack Saul. The Sins of the Cities of the Plain

Pages : 114
Book Description
"Janet Backhouse, who originally assembled the evidence that revealed this long-forgotten masterpiece, introduces the Hours of Louis XII and its cycle of miniatures. Thomas Kren discusses the book's provocative miniature of Bathsheba bathing within the context of the king's own taste and predilections and within the then-emerging genre of the female nude in French painting. Nancy Turner considers the importance of Bourdichon's painting and illuminating technique in the Hours of Louis XII in relation to his other work. Mark Evans examines the individual histories of each of the surviving portions of the book. Lastly, an appendix reconstructs the book's devotional contents and program of illumination."--BOOK JACKET.
