Book Description
The essays in this interdisciplinary collection draw on visual art, theatre, music, history and literature, in sacred and secular contexts, to explore the cultural fashioning of sexualities in early modern Italy. Approaching the topic from the point of view of both visual and auditory media, the essays demonstrate the role played by artistic production in fashioning, policing, and challenging early modern sexual boundaries.
