Heterosyncrasies

"In the early twentieth century, marriage manuals sought to link marital sex to the progress of civilization, searching for the history of what they considered to be normal sexuality. Karma Lochrie looks to the foundation of modern society in the Middle Ages to undertake a profound questioning of the heterosexuality of that history...Heterosyncrasies is milestone in the study of sexual identity politics, revealing not only how presumptions of normality obscure our understanding of the past but also how these beliefs affect our present-day laws, society, and daily life." -- Back cover
