Dear Academic,

We hope that this catalogue showcases our developing

(see p.3)

Political and Popular Culture in the Early Modern

Period(see p.4)

The Body, Gender and Culture (see p.5)

The History of the Book (see p.6)

Please get in touch with me if you would like to

contribute to one of these series or if you have any

ideas for a new series that would further serve the

needs of academics working on the early modern

period.

Sex, Identity and

Hermaphrodites in Iberia,

15001800

Richard Cleminson and FranciscoVzquez Garca

Early modern European thought heldthat men and women were essentiallythe same, with social forces creatingtheir differences. Such a view madethe existence of hermaphrodites easyto accept. During the seventeenthcentury, medical and legal arguments

began to turn against this one sexmodel, with hermaphroditism seenas a medieval superstition. This

book traces this change in Iberia incomparison to the earlier shift inthought in northern Europe, and withconcurrent ideas in Latin America.
