Eighteenth-Century British Erotica, Part I cover

This set reprints many of the 18th century's most notorious works, including eight from "The Fifteen Plagues of a Maiden-Head" (1707), that resulted in highly publicized court battles and in some cases helped shape laws on censorship that survived into modernity.

'This is an important work, not only for literary scholars but also for historians of sexuality ... this set should find a place in every research library supporting graduate students and faculty.' CHOICE
