Local Description

1995, First edition. An ex-library copy in very good condition. Apart from the expected library marks the only thing to note is that the illustration section has loosened slightly but is still attached to the binding.

Description

From the frescoes of Pompei to the disciplinarianism of the naval cultures of the last century, from medieval religious zealots to the New York lesbian scene today, flagellation has been widespread throughout Western civilization. This text analyzes its origins, different forms, and rituals.
