[edit] English Vice

Sub-titled Beating, Sex and Shame in Victorian England and After, this is a serious study of flogging and flagellation in English society by the author of The Assassination of Garcia Lorca and biographer of Dali.

Bound to bring back ghastly memories to anyone who attended English public schools before the 1970's, it covers sexual flagellation before Freud; beating at home and school in the 19th and early 20th centuries (with particular emphasis on Eton); judicial, prison, army and navy flogging, flagellant prostitution and fantasy. Illustrated with contemporary cartoons, engravings, woodcuts, advertisements and drawings (some very explicit).
