This title asserts that these links among vision, sexuality, and self-knowledge are key to the understanding of the self. Num Pages: 312 pages, 9 halftones.

paperback. Edward II (1284-1327), King of England, Lord of Ireland, and Duke of Aquitaine, was the object of ignominy during his lifetime and calumny since it.
