Paperback. Zustand: New. Essays exploring medieval castration, as reflected in archaeology, law, historical record, and literary motifs.Castration and castrati have always been facets of western culture, from myth and legend to law and theology, from eunuchs guarding harems to the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century castrati singers. Metaphoric castration pervadesa number of medieval literary genres, particularly the Old French fabliaux - exchanges of power predicated upon the exchange or absence of sexual desire signified by genitalia - but the plain, literal act of castration and its implications are often overlooked. This collection explores this often taboo subject and its implications for cultural mores and custom in Western Europe, seeking to demystify and demythologize castration. Its subjects includearchaeological studies of eunuchs; historical accounts of castration in trials of combat; the mutilation of political rivals in medieval Wales; Anglo-Saxon and Frisian legal and literary examples of castration as punishment; castration as comedy in the Old French fabliaux; the prohibition against genital mutilation in hagiography; and early-modern anxieties about punitive castration enacted on the Elizabethan stage. The introduction reflects on these topics in the context of arguably the most well-known victim of castration in the middle ages, Abelard.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Eleven seemingly disconnected short stories intertwine through the presence of a single enigmatic figure. Equal parts humorous and horrifying, each story a glimpse into a life unordinary: A son trying to fit in with his dysfunctional family, a famous tourist trap that houses a dark secret, the unconventional relationships that can develop between the sexes, the absurdity of teaching in the public school system, an urban legend involving one of the most revered presidents in American history, a drifter, a whore and a dumpster baby, a heist during the rolling blackouts of California's power crisis, a tour guide you'd follow anywhere, an antique clock that tells more than the time, a husband on trial for the murder of his wife, and the chilling realization that the Boogey Man is real. Playfully quick, dark, disturbing, and laced with irreverent humor, Short Stories, Grim Tales & Flat-out Debauchery is the first published works from veteran standup comedian, producer, director and Emmy(TM)-nominated host Jay Gates.…
