This book promises to lay to rest, once and for all, the early 20th-century truism that Victorians' primary relationship to sexuality turned on repression - Mary L. Poovey, Johns Hopkins University. An introduction to Victorian sexualities and a survey of current critical methods, these essays will energize reflection on the complexity of human sexuality and on the many different arrays of meaning that it has generated.

Morgan, Ornella Moscucci, Deborah Epstein Nord, Camilla Townsend, Herbert F. Tucker, and Martha Vicinus.
