Description for Understanding Pornographic Fiction
Paperback. BIC Classification: CFA. Dimension: 216 x 140. .
This work defends two main theses. First, modern Western pornographic fiction functions as a self-deceptive vehicle for sexual or blood-lustful arousal; and second, that its emergence owes as much to Puritan Protestantism and its inner- or this-worldly asceticism as does the emergence of modern rationalized capitalism.
