Sex and sexuality in Anglo-Saxon England

"Sex and Sexuality is the first collection of essays, indeed the first book, to explore the cultural constructions of sex, the sexes, and sexualities in Anglo-Saxon England. Directed to scholars (graduate students and academics) of Anglo-Saxon studies, of pre-modern Britain and Europe, and of gender, sex, and sexuality, the separate articles and the collection interrogate the discourses by which potentially reproductive and erotic elements of the body are understood and deployed. Beyond this, however, the collection also suggests the implications of those discourses for our understanding of the past as a topic that relates in various ways to our own often contested discussions of sex and sexuality."--BOOK JACKET.
