Le XXe siècle aurait inscrit une seule innovation au répertoire des pratiques sexuelles : le fist fucking. Fallait-il en rester à cette doxa popularisée par nombre d'intellectuels et de chercheurs ? Combinant érudition historique, réflexions théoriques, récits à la première personne, quasi-poèmes en prose, Fistpeut se lire au choix comme une apostille à Histoire de la sexualitéde Michel Foucault ou comme un roman queer. La singulière généalogie érotique qu'il nous propose s'ouvre sur des photographies de Robert Mapplethorpe et se clôt par une relecture du Cantique des cantiques. Entretemps, on aura visité Les Catacombes, mythique club privé du San Francisco des années 1970 ; relu Koltès, Sade, Homère, Ovide, Ronsard et Henry James ; croisé Amerifist, acteur star de ce sousgenre du cinéma porno ; compulsé des traités de médecine du XIXe siècle pour y découvrir d'étranges prescriptions ; passé des petites annonces sur des sites spécialisés ; fait quelques rencontres et pris rendez-vous chez un proctologue... Réduire le fist fucking à la violence du " poing " est un contresens. Le plaisir civilise la main pour mieux réinvestir les puissances imaginaires du corps, dans une union improbable qui pourrait bien aussi s'appeler " amour ".

Why, asks Daniel Rancour-Laferriere in this controversial book, has Russia been a country of suffering? Russian history, religion, folklore, and literature are rife with suffering. The plight of Anna Karenina, the submissiveness of serfs in the 16th and 17th centuries, ancient religious tracts emphasizing humility as the mother of virtues, the trauma of the Bolshevik revolution, the current economic upheavals wracking the country-- these are only a few of the symptoms of what The Slave Soul of Russia identifies as a veritable cult of suffering that has been centuries in the making. Bringing to light dozens of examples of self-defeating activities and behaviors that have become an integral component of the Russian psyche, Rancour-Laferriere convincingly illustrates how masochism has become a fact of everyday life in Russia. Until now, much attention has been paid to the psychology of Russia's leaders and their impact on the country's condition. Here, for the first time, is a compelling portrait of the Russian people's psychology.

Corporal punishment is often seen as a litmus test for a society's degree of civilization. Its licit use purports to separate modernity from premodernity, enlightened from barbaric cultures. As Geltner argues, however, neither did the infliction of bodily pain typify earlier societies nor did it vanish from penal theory, policy, or practice. Far from displaying a steady decline that accelerated with the Enlightenment, physical punishment was contested throughout Antiquity and the Middle Ages, its application expanding and contracting under diverse pressures. Moreover, despite the integration of penal incarceration into criminal justice systems since the nineteenth century, modern nation states and colonial regimes increased rather than limited the use of corporal punishment. Flogging Others thus challenges a common understanding of modernization and Western identity and underscores earlier civilizations' nuanced approaches to punishment, deviance, and the human body. Today as in the past, corporal punishment thrives due to its capacity to define otherness efficiently and unambiguously, either as a measure acting upon a deviant's body or as a practice that epitomizes - in the eyes of external observers - a culture's backwardness.

Why did France spawn the radical poststructuralist rejection of the humanist concept of 'man' as a rational, knowing subject? In this innovative cultural history, Carolyn J. Dean sheds light on the origins of poststructuralist thought, paying particular attention to the reinterpretation of the self by Jacques Lacan, Georges Bataille, and other French thinkers. Arguing that the widely shared belief that the boundaries between self and other had disappeared during the Great War helps explain the genesis of the new concept of the self, Dean examines an array of evidence from medical texts and literary works alike. The Self and Its Pleasures offers a pathbreaking understanding of the boundaries between theory and history.
