| Sommario/riassunto: | Explores the relationship between erotic writing, masculinity, and national identity in Renaissance England. This work argues that pornography is a historical phenomenon. It addresses the social significance of eroticism in such canonical texts as "Sidney's Defense of Poesy" and "Spenser's Faerie Queene". |
