- Description
- This book consists of historical, cultural and literary studies. The authors explore the contextual constructions of four historical figures: Marie Petit, the Duchess de Mazarin, Mme Dossement and Sally Salisbury. Next to this, they bring together articles dealing with texts and images that were more explicitly fictional and examine the literal omission between actresses and prostitutes. The theme of seduction and prostitution in sentimental discourse on prostitutes is also examined.
