Cover of Roger Davidson & Lesley A. Hall: Sex, Sin and Suffering (PDF)

This volume brings together for the first time a series of studies on the social history of venereal disease in modern Europe and its former colonies. It explores, from a comparative perspective, the responses of legal, medical and political authorities to the ‘Great Scourge’. In particular, how such responses reflected and shaped social attitudes towards sexuality and social relationships of class, gender, generation and race.
