The Invention of Pornography

The document appears to be a table of contents for a book about obscenity and its origins in modernity between 1500-1800. It lists 9 chapters across 3 parts that will examine the political, cultural, philosophical and formal qualities of pornography during this time period in places like Renaissance Italy, Restoration England, 18th century France and the Dutch Republic. The contributors section and index at the end suggest this is an academic text compiling the work of multiple authors on this topic.
