In Thinking Sex with the Early Moderns, Valerie Traub addresses these questions and, in doing so, reorients the ways in which historians and literary critics, feminists and queer theorists approach sexuality and its history. Her answers offer interdisciplinary strategies for confronting the difficulties of making sexual knowledge. Based on the premise that producing sexual knowledge is difficult because sex itself is often inscrutable, Thinking Sex with the Early Moderns leverages the notions of opacity and impasse to explore barriers to knowledge about sex in the past. Traub argues that the obstacles in making sexual history can illuminate the difficulty of knowing sexuality. She also argues that these impediments themselves can be adopted as a guiding principle of historiography: sex may be good to think with, not because it permits us access but because it doesn't. 410 0$aHaney Foundation series. 606 $aSex in literature 606 $aEnglish literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 606 $aSex (Psychology)$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aSex (Psychology)$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aGender identity$zEngland$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aGender identity$zEngland$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aLanguage and sex$xHistory 606 $aRenaissance$zEngland 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSex in literature. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aSex (Psychology)$xHistory 615 0$aSex (Psychology)$xHistory 615 0$aGender identity$xHistory 615 0$aGender identity$xHistory 615 0$aLanguage and sex$xHistory. 615 0$aRenaissance 676 $a820.9/353809031 700 $aTraub$b Valerie$f1958-$01055682 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459079903321 996 $aThinking sex with the early moderns$92489268 997 $aUNINA
