About This Item
London: Spring Books, (1970.) First published in 1963. Printed in East Germany. A study of "the excessive sexuality of the Middle Ages," an era marked by "unrestrained wildness and the practice of perversions unknown in earlier times." A frank work that argues the restrictive teachings of the Christian church led to a proliferation of illicit sex, orgies and other forbidden pleasures, and even witchcraft and the Black Mass. 320 pp., with select bibliography and index. 8vo clothbound hardcover in dust jacket. VG/VG. Some edge wear and rubbing to the jacket, but no tears or significant flaws. No price on the jacket, probably because this book was intended to be sold in various countries. "Printed in East Germany" ink stamps on the title page and the last page. Sound, tight binding. Jacket is protected by a clear archival cover.
