Cet ouvrage propose de faire résonner les différents sens de la notion de « frontière », qu'elle soit nationale ou culturelle, éditoriale ou auctoriale pour explorer la question de l'érotisme dans la littérature française du XXe siècle. Une transgression érotique des frontières nationales est-elle possible dans un siècle nourri par la haine de l'Autre ? C'est aussi sur l'histoire de l'édition et de la réception des écrits érotiques quese penche cet ouvrage, en cherchant à ressaisir le mouvement par lequel la littérature érotique passe du secret au grand jour. Ce questionnement sur l'intégration d'espaces autrefois marginaux au champ de la littérature légitime invite ainsi à une réflexion sur la valeur et la définition du littéraire.

An in-depth look at these two American artists, who explored issues of sexuality and feminism in the 1960s and 1970s in their sculpture and photography.

This exhibition and accompanying book offers the first opportunity to appreciate the resonances between the studio practices of Eva Hesse and Hannah Wilke. Both artists found themselves drawn to unconventional materials, such as latex, plastics, erasers, and laundry lint, which they used to make work that was viscerally related to the body. They shared an interest in repetition to amplify the absurdity of their work. These repeated forms–whether Hesse’s spiraling breast or Wilke’s labial fold–sought to confront the phallo-centricism of twentieth-century sculpture with a texture that might capture a more intimate, psychologically charged experience. Eleanor Nairne, the curator of the exhibition, writes the lead essay, followed by texts by Jo Applin and Anne Wagner. An extensive chronology by Amy Tobin includes primary-source materials, which bring a new history of how both artists’ work sits in relation to the wider New York scene. Also included are excerpts of both artists’ writing.

Focusing on non-human actors, Grażyna Gajewska expands the discussion of eroticism in contemporary culture by bringing in material culture, object studies, and “the anthropology of things.” She sets out from the assumption that things (such as, for instance, attire, underwear, shoes, or jewelry) play an important role in arousing erotic imagination—they are genuine participants in the process, not mere signifiers of eroticism. Their use does not denote only undeniable facts of everyday life associated with functionality, the pragmatic or aesthetic aspect, but also contribute to the shaping of human emotions, fantasies and phantasms. In her study, Gajewska brings eroticism in contemporary culture to light through applying gender studies to new contexts—animals, robots, virtual worlds—even as she explores a new methodology, the anthropology of things.

Een classicus en een uroloog onderzochten samen hoe de oude Romeinen dachten over schoonheid, het intieme leven, seks, seksuele geaardheden, huwelijk, overspel, scheiding, toiletbezoek. Mooie afbeeldingen van Amor en Psyche brengen de lezer meteen in de sfeer. De auteurs beschrijven het schoonheidsideaal, de penis, de kenmerken van verwijfde mannen en mannelijke vrouwen, de voorwaarden voor het huwelijk, overspel, echtscheiding, geboortebeperking, abortus, seks in vele vormen, prostitutie (waarvoor veel tolerantie bestond en 50 verschillende woorden beschikbaar waren) en toiletbezoek (waarvan je je kunt afvragen waarom dat hier is opgenomen). De Romeinse wereld was een seksparadijs voor de man, niet voor de vrouw: die moest trouw blijven! Tegenover pedofilie en homofilie was men minder tolerant dan nu en de Romeinse maatschappij was minder decadent dan de onze en ook dan de films doen vermoeden. Het boek is voorzien van originele teksten (in vertaling) en van prachtig beeldmateriaal. - Erotische kunst ; Romeinse Rijk - Liefde ; Romeinse Rijk - Seksualiteit ; cultuurgeschiedenis Grieks-Romeinse oudheid ; Romeinse oudheid
