Book Synopsis Obscenity: Social Control and Artistic Creation in the European Middle Ages by : Ziolkowski
Book excerpt: This volume makes most wide-ranging attempt ever to probe the natures, origins, and consequences of obscenity in medieval literature, art, theater, and law. One large section examines obscenity in medieval French literature, especially fabliaux; but the rest of the book explores obscenity in cultures and languages of other regions in Europe.
