Meer over het boek

Focusing on the Victorian era's censorship, this volume by Henry Spencer Ashbee explores a range of erotic literature that faced bans and prohibitions. It highlights numerous "curious, uncommon, and erotic books," revealing the societal attitudes toward sexuality and literature during that time. Ashbee's work not only documents these texts but also establishes his significant role in the study of pornography in England, influencing perceptions of erotic literature well into the 20th century.
