AUTHOR

Allen, Peter Lewis

SUMMARY

"Peter Lewis Allen takes a closer look at these messages, explicitly placing the current crisis in the context of other plagues, other cultures. While Allen's slender volume doesn't carry the force and impressive scholarship of Abbott's [THE HISTORY OF CELIBACY], his history of sexual (and sexualized) conditions still packs a punch, with accounts of social responses to leprosy, syphilis, and bubonic plaguenot to mention lovesickness, a life-threatening Middle Ages bile imbalance with familiar symptoms including erotic longing and mood swings."Allen, Peter Lewis is the author of 'Wages of Sin Sex and Disease, Past and Present', published 2002 under ISBN 9780226014616 and ISBN 0226014614.
