Find This If You Can,
By N. Martin (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Banned: Classical Erotica : Forty Sensual and Erotic Excepts from Aristophanes to Whitman-Uncensored (Paperback)
There is an unfortunate idea current, that sex was invented in the 20th century and before that Victorian ideas held sway all the way back to the dawn of time. This book is a refreshing antidote to that idea, with its merry quotations from over 2,000 years of erotic writings. It also has some examples of bowdlerized and direct translations, which are interesting not only in themselves but as a way of recognizing stealthy censorship.All in all, this is a marvelous resource.
