Engaging Sidney's Astrophil and Stella, Spenser's The Faerie Queene, and Shakespeare's Sonnets, among others Gil demonstrates how sexuality was conceived as a relationship system not institutionalized in a domestic realm.English literatureEarly modern, 1500-1700History and criticismLiterature and societyEnglandHistory16th centuryLiterature and societyEnglandHistory17th centurySex customsEnglandHistory16th centurySex customsEnglandHistory17th centurySex in literatureEnglish literatureHistory and criticism.Literature and societyHistoryLiterature and societyHistorySex customsHistorySex customsHistorySex in literature.820.9353809031Gil Daniel Juan1572552MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784112203321Before intimacy3847578UNINA
