Si grande était la « pudicité » de l'empereur Maximilien qu'il se retirait seul sur sa chaise percée, « sans se servir de valets de chambre, ni de pages. » Si grande celle d'Isabelle de Castille, qu'elle mourut d'un ulcère qu'elle n'avait pas voulu montrer : il fallut même lui administrer l'extrême-onction sous les draps, puisqu'elle ne voulait pas laisser voir ses pieds. Et que dire d'Anne d'Autriche, qui fit détruire plus de cent mille francs de tableaux « indécents » ; de Louis XIII, qui barbouillait les fresques de sa chambre; de Mazarin, qui mutilait les statues ?À l'opposé, que dire de la baronne de Montreuil-Bellay, qui demandait à un de ses vassaux, quand elle se rendait chez lui, de la porter sur ses épaules là où lui-même allait à pied et de lui tendre, le moment venu, la mousse qui tenait lieu de papier ? Que dire d'un roi qui recevait ses courtisans sur sa chaise d'affaire, et qui demandait qu'au théâtre les sauvages fussent « habillés comme s'ils étoient presque nuds » ? Ces exemples nous invitent à étudier la pudeur dans une perspective qui n'a pas encore été exploitée : sa dimension historique. Elle permettra de fournir d'autres réponses aux éternelles questions : quels sont les rapports entre pudeur corporelle et pudeur des sentiments ? Y a-t-il une pudeur féminine et une pudeur masculine ? Pourquoi rougit-on de sa nudité ? Et d'abord, qu'est-ce que la pudeur ?

This book offers a fresh approach to some of the most studied documents relating to Christian female asceticism in the Roman era. Focusing on the letters of advice to the women of the noble Anicia family, Kate Wilkinson argues that conventional descriptions of feminine modesty can reveal spaces of agency and self-formation in early Christian women's lives. She uses comparative data from contemporary ethnographic studies of Muslim, Hindu, and indigenous Pakistani women to draw out the possibilities inherent in codes of modesty. Her analysis also draws on performance studies for close readings of Ambrose, Augustine, Jerome and Pelagius. The book begins by locating itself within the complex terrain of feminist historiography, and then addresses three main modes of modest behavior - dress, domesticity and silence. Finally, it addresses the theme of false modesty and explores women's agency in light of Augustinian and Pelagian conceptions of choice.

In this fascinating study, Samantha George explores the cultivation of the female mind and the feminised discourse of botanical literature in eighteenth-century Britain. In particular, she discusses British women's engagement with the Swedish botanist, Carl Linnaeus, and his unsettling discovery of plant sexuality. Previously ignored primary texts of an extraordinary nature are rescued from obscurity and assigned a proper place in the histories of science, eighteenth-century literature, and women's writing. The result is groundbreaking: the author explores nationality and sexuality debates in relation to botany and charts the appearance of a new literary stereotype, the sexually precocious female botanist. She uncovers an anonymous poem on Linnaean botany, handwritten in the eighteenth century, and subsequently traces the development of a new genre of women's writing - the botanical poem with scientific notes. The book is indispensable reading for all scholars of the eighteenth century, especially those interested in Romantic women's writing, or the relationship between literature and science.

Guy Sircello's analysis of the varieties of expression and his use of them to justify a particular view of the human mind clarify a number of controversial topics in contemporary philosophy, among them the notion of "artistic acts," language as expression, the expression of ideas, expressions as "natural signs," and the nature of the causal relationship between an expression and what is expressed.Originally published in 1972.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
