Queer Anatomies

Meer over het boek

Exploring the intersection of anatomy and eroticism, this book delves into the often-overlooked erotic expressions found in 18th and 19th-century anatomical imagery. It highlights how anatomical illustrations, typically seen as sober and technical, also conveyed monstrous, provocative, and sensual qualities. The work uncovers the queerness of the men involved in the creation and collection of these images, revealing a hidden narrative of desire and intimacy within a discipline that traditionally shunned such topics.
