Much more than a magnificent portfolio of erotic art, this volume represents one of the first scholarly attempts to explore an area that only recently has been freed from the constraints inherited from our puritanical past. Here, a group of eminent scholars and art historians apply the highest professional standards in examining in depth five manifestations of erotic art. Drawing upon the extensive collection of erotica in the archives of the Institute for Sex Research as well as upon the resources of museums around the world, the authors demonstrate the scope and variety of erotic art over the centuries. In addition, from their perspectives as scholars, they make an important beginning on the vast and long-neglected task of comprehending this rich and many-faceted area of human activity.
