Description
Sexology and Translation is the first study of the contemporaneous emergence of sexology in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Heike Bauer and her contributorsâ?"historians, literary and cultural critics, and translation scholarsâ?"address the intersections between sexuality and modernity in a range of contexts during the period from the 1880s to the 1930s.A From feminist sexualities in modern Japan to Magnus Hirschfeldâ?Ts affective sexology, this book offers compelling new insights into how sexual ideas were formed in different contexts via a complex process of cultural negotiation. By focusing on issues of translationâ?"the dynamic process by which ideas are produced and transmittedâ?"the essays in Sexology and Translation provide an important corrective to the pervasive idea that sexuality is a â?oWesternâ?? construct that was transmitted around the world.A This volume deepens understanding of how the intersections between national and transnational contexts, between science and culture, and between discourse and experience, shaped modern sexuality.A A
