We talk about sex more and more, but are we more liberated?The first part of Michel Foucault's landmark account of our evolving attitudes in the west shows how the nineteenth century, far from suppressing sexuality, led to an explosion of discussion about sex as a separate sphere of life for study and examination.

Dramatic, lyrical, Christian, pagan, old and modern, Pessoa's poets and poetry contribute ...
