Millennia of Lust: The Erotica Anthology

Aelius Valerius

4.9/5 (13225 ratings)

Description:The beginnings of erotica go back to stone age figurines and ancient Egyptian papyri. The first pieces of erotic literature to come down to us are from ancient Greece and Rome. The vast majority of these texts were destroyed during the Christian book burnings of the fourth and fifth centuries AD but enough remains to give tantalizing and titillating insight into the sexual mores of antiquity. The Middle Ages - aptly named the Dark Ages - largely hide sexual matters behind a veil of Christian obscurity. It is only in the later Middle Ages that sexual matters were written about again by the likes of Chaucer and Boccaccio. The Renaissance was a time when libertines such as John Wilmot could express themselves freely again and created masterpieces of erotica that reached all the way to the 19th century and beyond. The scope of works in this anthology reaches from antiquity to our times, from the sublime to the vulgar. www.victorian-erotica.orgWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
