Sex, The Illustrated History, Volume I, begins a daring  exploration of human sexuality from the ancient to the modern world. Revealed are sexual practices and beliefs previously omitted or obscured from all historical telling. In a scathing condemnation of religion and its control of sex, the book explores complex relationships between spirituality and sexuality. The supremacy of the mother goddess throughout most of human existence, and her relatively recent fall, is detailed in both word and image. These pages share graphic erotic art works and explicit literary excerpts, painstakingly culled from the hidden treasure trove of cultures throughout history. Sex, The Illustrated History, traces sexual attitudes from the transcendent to the bizarre throughout the worlds’ cultures. The often explicit illustrations are linked by historical and anthropological content, inviting the reader to experience sexuality through varied and often shocking cultural lenses. Over 300 images have been gathered by the author, in his travels and studies of world cultures. An encyclopedic tour of the sexuality of humankind!

Each individual part can become a focus of erotic passion, an object of fetishist adoration. On the other hand, the body as a whole is still the sum of its parts. The partitioning that we carry out here brings to m...

    En ce début de millénaire, il nous a semblé intéressant de publier ce volumineux ouvrage sur l’histoire de l’Érotisme. Curieuse époque que la nôtre ! Malgré une liberté toujours plus grande, les mots comme les images sont devenus formatés. Le « politiquement correct » s’est installé comme un credo, et les images redeviennent des icônes, particulièrement celles des femmes. Duran...
