| Summary |
The book develops and brings up to date the arguments about the history of sexuality first visited in Queer People: Negotiations and Expressions of Sexuality, 1600-1800 (Bucknell University Press, 2007). It marks a cautious farewell to Foucauldian analysis and begins to lay the groundwork for future methodologies for understandi. |
