We invite special guest Sarah Carter from McGill University to talk about her research in eighteenth-century erotic art, erotic media in general, and how distinctly not prudish the Enlightenment was!

 

Featuring discussion about GS Rousseau's Perilous Enlightenment (1991) and Camilla Smith's "Between Fantasy and Angst: Assessing the Subject and Meaning of Henry Fuseli’s Late Pornographic Drawings, 1800–25" (2010)
