Courtly Love
Author: Jean Markale
Publisher: Inner Traditions / Bear & Co
ISBN: 9780892817719
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
A comprehensive examination of the rituals and philosophies that created and sustained medieval troubadour culture • Debunks the myth of the platonic nature of courtly love, showing the many sexual similarities to the Tantric practices of India • Reveals how the roots of courtly love go back to the matriarchal cultures of neolithic times The widespread turmoil that shook Western Europe as it entered the new millennium with the year 1000 prompted a vast reevaluation of the chief tenets of society. Foremost among these was a new way of looking at love and the place held by women in society. The Christian-inspired tradition that at best viewed women with contempt--and often with outright fear and loathing--was replaced by a new perspective, one in which women enjoyed a central role as the inspiration for all male action. For several hundred years courtly love, with its emphasis on adultery, carnal pleasures, and the power of the feminine, dominated European culture despite its flouting of conventional Christian morality. Medieval historians by and large have tended to regard courtly love as a sterile parlor game for the upper classes. To the contrary, Jean Markale shows that the stakes were much higher: the roots of the ritual re-created here go all the way back to the great mother goddess. In addition, the platonic nature attributed to these relationships is based on a misunderstanding of courtly love; underneath the refined poetry of the troubadours' verses flourished a system of sexual initiation that rivaled Indian Tantra.

Pages : 496
Book Description
Which sort of seducer could you be? Siren? Rake? Cold Coquette? Star? Comedian? Charismatic? Or Saint? This book will show you which. Charm, persuasion, the ability to create illusions: these are some of the many dazzling gifts of the Seducer, the compelling figure who is able to manipulate, mislead and give pleasure all at once. When raised to the level of art, seduction, an indirect and subtle form of power, has toppled empires, won elections and enslaved great minds. In this beautiful, sensually designed book, Greene unearths the two sides of seduction: the characters and the process. Discover who you, or your pursuer, most resembles. Learn, too, the pitfalls of the anti-Seducer. Immerse yourself in the twenty-four manoeuvres and strategies of the seductive process, the ritual by which a seducer gains mastery over their target. Understand how to 'Choose the Right Victim', 'Appear to Be an Object of Desire' and 'Confuse Desire and Reality'. In addition, Greene provides instruction on how to identify victims by type. Each fascinating character and each cunning tactic demonstrates a fundamental truth about who we are, and the targets we've become - or hope to win over. The Art of Seduction is an indispensable primer on the essence of one of history's greatest weapons and the ultimate power trip. From the internationally bestselling author of The 48 Laws of Power, Mastery, and The 33 Strategies Of War.

Sexual Landscapes
Author: James D. Weinrich
Publisher: Createspace Independent Pub
ISBN: 9781478347248
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
The power of love is (as the song says) a curious thing. Rock stars sing about it, comedians tell jokes about it, and just about every advice columnist writes about it. Scientifically, however, just how curious love is, is still an open question. "Love" is a four-letter word to many people—and "sex" is the shortest four-letter word of all. Society builds taboos around these words, but there's no denying that love and sex are spectacular. This is a book about sex: typical and atypical, loving and lustful, sensible and ridiculous. Sexual Landscapes takes on the most challenging puzzles of human sexuality and incorporates the latest scientific research, experts' theories, and the author's own work to explain them. Why are we attracted to the people we love? Why are we hetero-, homo-, bi-, or transsexual? Who's controlling the communication when a man and a woman meet for the first time? Why do there seem to be more gay men than gay women? More bisexual women than bisexual men? Why do men and women say they're aroused by different things, but when tested with actual erotica, appear to be aroused by the same things? Why are we afraid to educate our children about sex? Does homosexuality run in families? How do things as delightful as sex and love become intertwined with pain and violence? Dr. Weinrich challenges our assumptions and popular taboos as he presents the results of fascinating research and controversial theories about why we love and lust. Sexual Landscapes is a provocative, challenging guided tour of our sexual selves that will delight, inform, and instruct. BRIEF TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1: The Power of Love — Introduction Chapter 2: Gender Transpositions — Erotic subtypes discussed in the book Chapter 3: Ten Unsolved Problems — about the science of sexual arousal Chapter 4: The S*x Taboo — and how it cripples our society Chapter 5: Reality or Social Construction? — Are things like 'homosexuality' real, or just constructed by society? Chapter 6: Limerence, Lust, Bisexuality — A new theory of types of attraction that explains how someone might 'fall in lust' with one sex but only 'fall in love' with the other sex Chapter 7: The Periodic-Table Model — How the gender transpositions can be arranged Chapter 8: Plethysmography — Direct genital measurement as an amazing and insightful scientific technique Chapter 9: Families of Origin — How sexual preferences are related to childhood personality traits and parental caring patterns Chapter 10: When Sex and Violence Mix — How can something as wonderful as love sometimes get connected to pain and suffering? Chapter 11: Courtship theory — The secret ways women attract men, and why men don't know about them Chapter 12: Homosexuality in Animals — Gay or bisexual animals? Why not?!?? Chapter 13: Sociobiology — How evolution explains sexual orientation Chapter 14: The Big Picture — Solving the ten problems posed in chapter 3 Chapter 15: Conclusions — Why responsible openness about sex is vital to society References Index — The index page numbers do point accurately to page numbers in this printed edition.
