Más información sobre el libro
The author situates in late 19th century London the crucial moment in which feminist sexual politics and narratives about sexual danger are constructed. This was inseparable from representations of the city, the emergence of modern norms regarding sex and sexual relationships, and the powerful discourses of law, science, and medicine. The fascination of this work lies both in the spectacular nature of the setting and Walkowitz's arguments, as well as in the meticulousness of her historical thought.
