[Erotic Literature] Derrick, Samuel
A Collection of Travels Thro' Various Parts of the World.Containing an Accurate Account of the Religion Laws Manners Commerce and Constitution of Many Different Nations in 2 vols.
London: John Wilkie 1762. First edition. With title page of volume II erroneously dated MDCCXII as called for by ESTC. Contemporary half calf over marbled boards measuring 168 x 100mm and collating complete: 20 338; 12 324. A square copy with joints professionally renewed; some chipping to spine labels and gentle shelfwear to boards. Faint dampstaining to lower corner of contents in volume I and paper loss to upper corner of pages 203-204 affecting 9 lines each. Volume II overall clean with long archivally reinforced tear to pages 131-132 and paper loss to lower corner of pages 171-172 with no text loss in either case. An exceptionally scarce fantastical travel narrative with erotic content published by notorious Grub Street writer and demi-monde ally Samuel Derrick. ESTC locates only three copies at institutions BL Columbia and UCLA and of the three copies to appear in the modern auction record the most recent was in 1941. The present is the only example on the market. <br /> <br /> In a 1763 review in The Critical Review or Annals of Literature vol. 15 Samuel Derrick's Collection of Travels is derided as a book for "those who read merely for amusement and care not for turning up the huge collection of voyages traveled by Purchas Churchill Astley Harris &c" due to its "total neglect of dates total want of maps a strange perversion of names a general lack of precision or accuracy." These same reviewers make a dismissive nod to how "the adventures of captain John Smith savour strongly of romance" and suggest that the work "does not seem to have been intended so much for serious reading as for pleasing the imagination" but they fail to grasp just how much this is the case. No matter how deeply Samuel Derrick sought to portray himself as a participant in London's intelligentsia he was ultimately a Grub Street hack who "wrote to eat" and not from "any great artistic urge" Rubenhold. Having learned early on that "hacks and whores shared much common ground" Derrick became not only a "gentleman defender" and friend to several of London's demi-monde he also used their escapades as inspiration for his writing and his writing to promote their reputations and services.<br /> <br /> Such is the case with the present work designed for stoking the reader's fantasies and for lining the author and publisher's pockets. Among "the period's richest funds of data erotica and pornography permeated the culture.and the 18th century bookshop" Pettit and Spedding. Works operating under the thin guises of travel law medicine politics history or religion presented readers across genders with graphic depictions not only of cis-gendered and heterosexual encounters but even more often with scenes that cenered queer polyamorous and female pleasure. In the case of Collection of Travels Derrick used preexisting popular travel narratives as the backdrop for his main work: depicting sexual behaviors common within London's sex trade but setting them within exotic locales. Within volume I for example his explorers encounter "the prostitution of the women of Camul and their hospitable reception of strangers" "the common use of women" in Thebet rites of "marriages of the people of Servia" and the "wives and concubines" of Constantinople including how they are valued how virginity is tried and how they are punished. The second volume builds on this including such content as the "courtezans of Persia" the "women lewd" of Turkey and "the usage of their wives" in Algiers. Given his own appreciation for the power of the sex workers in his own life -- notably Lucy Cooper Kitty Fisher and Charlotte Hayes -- he also includes a section on "the authority of the women in this country" of the Congo. <br /> <br /> One of Derrick's few stand-alone multi-volume works to be published and a rarity in the collecting areas of erotic literature and travel fiction. <br /> <br /> ESTC T135777.

[Erotic Literature] [Cornuto] A Gentleman of Doctors Commons
Cuckoldom Triumphant; or Matrimonial Incontinence Vindicated.To which is added A Looking Glass for Each Sex
London: Printed by T. Thorn 1771. First edition. Contemporary sheep recornered and rebacked to style with gilt and morocco to spine. Measuring 163 x 95mm. Collating 4 203 1 blank: complete with A Looking Glass beginning at page 146 with continuous register. Nineteenth century bookplate to front pastedown. Offsetting to outer margins of title and of pages 198-203 not affecting text; lower corner of dedication leaf neatly excised with no loss to text; marginal paper flaw to pages 45-46. Overall internally unmarked and clean. One of two equally scarce variants with no priority the other printed by J. Bird. ESTC reports only one surviving copy of each both of these held by the British Library of these only the Bird variant is digitized. Neither these first issues nor the later re-issue titled Cupid Turned Spy appear in the modern auction record. An exceptionally rare work. <br /> <br /> The widespread cultural assertion that men had control over their own fates led to equally widespread anxiety in the seventeenth and eighteenth century. Despite a preponderance of laws and traditions that privileged men and sought to subjugate women and queer peoples sex outside the boundaries of marriage undermined those systems. Few figures encapsulate this truth better than the cuckold. "Cuckolds were seen as being unable to satisfy and control their wives; as literary tropes "they are more often than not the target of derision to both their peers on the stage and the audience the theatre nearly universally to be greeted with laughter as they follow a predictable path of failure in marriage" Corcoran. As much as these figures assisted male audience members in projecting their fears onto allegedly weaker men they signify that complete control over women marriages and lines of inheritance isn't possible. The denial of women's agency does not equate the complete absence of women's agency.<br /> <br /> Women's sexual agency had become highly visible in key sectors of London society by the eighteenth century thanks in part to the rise of a famed generation of courtesans often called the "demi-monde" who dominated not only their own brothels and houses but also theatres opera houses and the court itself. Sex work more generally had become extremely common with studies estimating that anywhere from 8600 to 80000 citizens of the city were engaged in some level of the sex trade Rogers. In this atmosphere depictions of the cuckold shifted in some erotic works. Rather than symbolizing men's sexual failures the cuckold's acceptance of his position acknowledged and at times even celebrated women's sexual autonomy. If being cuckolded was inevitable as a result of women's equal participation in sexual desire then fault might not lie with the cuckold. Indeed being a cuckold may even have benefits when more conservative social judgment is set aside.<br /> <br /> Authored by the pseudonymous "Cornuto" -- a Latin joke naming the author after the cuckold's "horn" -- Cuckoldom Triumphant is dedicated to the gentry noting "the amazing encrease of antlers of late among the nobility whose customs the common people are so fond of copying which gives me the pleasing promise of cuckoldom's becoming universal." Indeed the author notes cuckoldom is inevitable and each must choose his own reaction to the state. To that end "this work is intended to comfort the afflicted and confirm the contented among those who are married as well as prepare the unmarried for the happy state of cuckoldom." In what follows the author provides readers with a sensational erotic story following the awakening of Mrs. Latitat to the pleasures of extramarital sexuality as well as her husband's transformation from jealous resistance to acceptance and contentment within a more peaceful marital state. <br /> <br /> ESTC T62268 T226126 for the J. Bird variant. Register of Erotic Books 1197 for a later issue re-titled Cupid Turned Spy. Printed by T. Thorn unknown

[Erotic Literature] [Sex Work] Fantosme
Memoirs of the Nobility Gentry &c. of Thule: or The Island of Love. Being a Secret History of Their Amours Artifices and Intrigues in 2 vols.
London: Printed for W. Webb 1742. First edition. Bound to style in 19th century sheep with morocco and gilt to spines. Measuring 168 x 96mm and with occasional mispagination but collating complete: xxiv 300; 2 336. Some offsetting to preliminary and terminal leaves and occasional light foxing and marginal chips not affecting text; discreet archival repairs to short tear on pages 115-116 and long tear to 285-286 of volume I preserving all text. Early amateur cloth tape repair to recto of front endpaper to volume II. Pinholes to lower spines of both volumes with minor associated worming to the lower front hinges. A scarce example of early erotic literature centered on London's famous courtesans ESTC lists only 6 copies with institutions. The present copy aside the last example to appear at auction was in 1882. <br /> <br /> Published two years apart the two volumes of Memoirs of the Nobility are different in their approaches to London's elite including the infamous Great Impures who hosted the wealthiest men in their parlours and their beds. Volume I launches its readers into a thinly veiled satire wherein the protagonist Aloisa visits the mythical kingdom of Thule. During her tour on arrival Aloisa discovers a city of extreme decadence whose cast of characters would be familiar to most Londoners indeed the copy housed at the British Museum has contemporary annotations from William Cole denoting some of the avatars' real-life identities. "there was scarce a Thing as a Virgin of twenty Years of Age to be found in all the Island.all was flaming Lust; and from the Court to the Cottage all had their Share in amorous Intrigues." While sexual violence is rampant in Thule Aloisa's host the Chevalier Faire-Franc informs her of numerous girls assaulted and left pregnant by the son of the new Lord Chancellor for example much of the kingdom's activities center on the sex trade. Ambition and wealth drive residents "to get Money which at Night they as lavishly spend" at various houses of pleasure. In these descriptions readers visit the brothels of such real-life bawds as Mother Elizabeth Wisebourn here called Madona who dresses as a nun to recruit girls and uses medicine and magic to "restore" their virginity and continuously demand the highest prices -- a practice she infamously used to market her girls particularly Sally Salisbury and Sally Lodge before they rose to success in their own rights. Nearby Miss Edwards of Kensington possibly Kitty Fisher or Lucy Cooper resides "in open Fornication" yet "defies all Scandal." A string of famous men -- authors dignitaries and gentry -- are also exposed for their engagement with courtesans their elopements and their affairs. <br /> <br /> By volume II these details fade and the stories shift toward a more general erotic fantasy. But both notably participate in celebrating and expressing anxiety about the growing power of London's sex trade. With estimates of London's sex workers ranging widely from 8600-80000 it was undeniable that a vast portion of the population was engaged in sex-for-money whether as a provider or consumer Rogers. The money and public influence of courtesans like Kitty Fisher Lucy Cooper Sally Salisbury Sophia Baddeley Mary Robertson and others highlighted how women who defined traditional marriage economies could carve out their own wealth independence and community. <br /> <br /> ESTC T75813.

[Erotic Literature] [Caracciolo, Henrietta]
Memoirs of Henrietta Caracciolo of the Princes of Forino. Ex Benedictine Nun
London: Richard Bentley 1864. First English language edition. Contemporary half calf over marbled boards with morocco label to spine. All edges marbled. Marbled endpapers. Measuring 179 x 119mm and collating complete including photographic frontis: x 374. A square tight copy with some loss to upper spine label and gentle rubbing to boards. Amorial bookplate to front pastedown. Light scattered foxing largely confined to preliminary and terminal leaves; pages 161-162 partially detached but holding. A female-authored memoir that participates in both anti-Catholicism and convent-fetish eroticism it is somewhat scarce institutionally but is a rarity in trade with its most recent appearance at auction occurring a century ago. The present is the only example currently on the market. <br /> <br /> Frank in her delivery Henrietta Caracciolo recounts how her rise to young womanhood under the jealous eye of her mother -- combined with the untimely death of a sympathetic father -- led to her unwilling confinement in a Benedictine convent. Denied early opportunities for engaging in the courtship and marriage economy she longs to be a part of Henrietta Caracciolo instead is forced by her mother to repress her sexual identity and disappear into a life of solitude and chastity. What she finds there instead is a space of sexual abuse unexplained deaths illicit affairs physical abuse and theft. "My sole aim in writing these Memoirs has been to confirm" she writes in the preface "as far as lay in my power with the arguement drawn from fact the opportune and just decree of the Italian government in the suppression of Convents and to disabuse the minds of those if haply any such remain who deem these places the repositories of religious virtues." Timely social commentary in her native Italy her memoirs hit a different note in Protestant England where Catholic convents and monasteries had long been closed; indeed it participated in the anti-Catholic fetish fantasy of convents and monasteries as bastions of deviant and violent sexuality. She herself by the memoir's end emerges to a new and more promising life -- one which participates in popular Victorian cult of domesticity and motherhood which she positions as far more godly and fulfilling. Yet it also leaves open the door of female desire and sexual fulfilment. "By the side of a husband who adores me and to whom I respond with equal love I am where the Almighty placed woman at the close of Creation's first week."<br /> <br /> <br /> Register of Erotic Books 2950.

It last sold at auction in 1929 and the present is the only first edition on the market.<br /> <br /> "Begin my Muse and sing in Epick train The Petticoat; Nor shall thou sing in vain The Petticoat will sure reward thy pain!" So opens a satire composed under the pseudonym Mr. Gay used by several of those hacks in Edmund Curll's employ which traces how the amorous adventures of Thyrsis and Chloe were made possible by the latter's fashionable hooped skirt. Finding both humor and seriousness in women's fashion The Petticoat points out how some of the clothing designed to hinder women's movement could actually be adapted to their advantage -- in this case the pursuit and fulfillment of illicit sexual affairs. For just as Thyrsis is able to hide beneath his lover's skirt to conceal himself while pleasing her Chloe is able to share this information with her female coterie including the work's readers. Thus women desirous of hiding lovers of any gender might deploy this ingenious method allowing them to engage in affairs without traveling far from home. An acknowledgement of women's own sexual desire and agency.<br /> <br /> ESTC T43929. Unspeakable Curll 241-242. Not in the Register of Erotic Books. R. Burleigh [false imprint for E. Curll] unknown

[Erotic Literature] Castillo Soloranzo, Alonso de
The Spanish Pole-Cat: or the Adventures of Seniora Rufina.
London: Printed for E. Curll in Fleet Street 1717. First thus. Contemporary full calf with gilt label to spine. All edges speckled red. Measuring 155 x 90mm and collating complete including frontis and terminal advertisement: 4 394 2. Shelfwear to extremities and slight bowing to boards. Contemporary annotations to front pastedown and front and rear endpapers with portions of rear endpapers excised; rear pastedown neatly removed. Internally a clean copy with a long closed tear to pages 213-214 professionally repaired with no loss to text and brief examples of pencil marginalia to pages 237-38. A pleasing copy of a scarce erotic book which last appeared at auction over three decades ago and which ESTC lists at only 12 U.S. libraries. <br /> <br /> Drawn from a 17th century Spanish picaresque novel following the intrigues of the female rake Rufina Alonso de Castillo's La Garduna de Sevilla 1642 first appeared in English in 1665 as a romantic adventure translated by John Davies as La Picara or The Triumphs of Female Subtilty. By the time of this translation however Rufina's persona took a more overtly libertine turn as she was declared a "whore" even within the title i.e. "pole-cat". Published by unscrupulous bookseller and printer Edmund Curll the text has clear erotic rather than romantic implications. "A notorious figure among the publishers of the early eighteenth century for his boldness lack of scruple publication of work without authors' consent and taste for erotic and scandalous publications" Curll did not involve himself in the release of texts that aimed to educate men and women into socially dictated marital roles Baines and Rogers. Instead his version of the Rufina story revels in its heroine's sexual appetite and capitalizes on the popularity of the English demi-monde -- courtesans such as Kitty Fisher Lucy Cooper and Charlotte Hayes -- by making her a more exoticized iteration of the fantasy they presented to men and women alike. <br /> <br /> Positioned as it is outside the British Empire Rufina's narrative invites readers to engage at a slight distance with questions not only about her sexual agency or even the agency of courtesans but instead about the agency of women more broadly. As Kathleen Lubey has pointed out erotic works from this period positioned "decadent sexual description" within a much larger prose structure that "posed questions about social justice and elaborated on gender inequity"; indeed "pornographic prose fiction" such as The Spanish Pole-Cat "rethinks which people count as persons to what degree they can claim property in their own bodies and the correspondence of those bodies to social identity" What Pornography Knows. Capable of stimulating the senses of all readers physically and intellectually Rufina the female libertinism and the sex trade she invokes encourage excitement over what can happen when limitations are stripped away from certain portions of the population that don't in reality have the ability to move with such freedom.<br /> <br /> ESTC T89213.

Armorial bookplate on front paste-down of each volume and early ink signature of Thos. Grant at top of title-pages.<br /> <br /> Trials for Adultery was published over a period of two years and was completed in seven volumes with thirty engraved plates. Because of their 'pornographic' nature some or all of the plates are often not found. In our set three of the plates have been excised by a previous owner. "The genre of pornographic trial reports was fully developed in the late 1770s a fact which is borne out by the publication in seven volumes of a special collection of interesting cases Trials for Adultery: or the History of Divorces. The editor remarks to the reader that 'conjugal infidelity is become so general that it is hardly considered as criminal; especially in the fashionable world'. In view of the many erotic and obscene prints contained in the seven volumes the moral justifications offered in defence of the publication of the trial reports appear quite ridiculous if not hypocritical. Mostly erotic but occasionally also obscene such pictorial material now became a standard feature of trial reports for the rest of the century" Boucé. Printed for S. Bladon unknown

[Erotic Satire] [Widows and Sexuality] [Marriage and Economics]
The Triumph of Sentiment - The Prospect of Happiness - or a Picture for Dotards
London: S. W. Fores 1800. First edition. Illustrated hand-colored broadside measuring 270 x 400mm and printed to verso only. Faint offsetting to recto and faint traces of mounting to corners. In all a Fine example of this visual satire commenting on the phenomenon of younger men seeking marriage with elderly widows for their own financial gain -- and the cultural anxiety surrounding the marital sexuality of such brides. Unrecorded in ESTC and OCLC we have located two examples of the present work at the British Museum and Yale. <br /> <br /> The present broadside draws together a wide matrix of debates and social anxieties surrounding the economic and sexual status of widows and the financial motivations for marriage among second sons and men of the middle class. Though women were more frequently forced into experiencing marriage as a form of 'honorable prostitution' in which their physical desirability served as their key for accessing wealth and stability under coverture it was increasingly acknowledged that large swaths of young men also suffered under this system. And while widows could escape the system -- shifting from the disempowered femme covert to the more legally independent femme sole on their husbands' deaths -- there was both a social fantasy of reinserting them into the marriage market as a means for regaining control over their money and bodies as well as a social anxiety about their ability to corrupt through the range of knowledge and authority they gained through previous marital experience. Here a young man walks his aging crone down the aisle. Ornately clad and expressing her anticipation for "the comforts of matrimony" she is ridiculed by the ministers at the pulpit who posit that if "matrimony was first ordained.for a remedy against fornication" then "the remedy will be worse than the disease" in this instance. Untroubled the young groom focuses on the land deeds bank notes and jewelry accounts which stuff his pockets -- assets which will legally become his after the ceremony and which serve as his marital comforts. Meanwhile two young women observe from the sidelines one of them planning her future with the groom after his aging bride's eventual demise. "Those jewels will look better on me than on the last owner" she notes as her companion whispers hopefully "you'll let me take a morning ride with you sometimes."<br /> <br /> A visual commentary on the financial and social issues surrounding marriage under coverture which Daniel Defoe would deride as "matrimonial whoredom."<br /> <br /> <br /> British Museum 1935.0522.8.109.

[Erotic songs, illustrated]. [Bernard, Edmond Dardenne]
Les Chants du Quartier Latin et de l'Internat avec la musique et 53 illustrations coloriees au pochoir
1931. Luxembourg: Privately Printed n.d. but Paris: Guibal c.1931. <br /> <br /> 4to 214 pp. With 53 color pochoir illustrations. Original printed wrappers binding cracked and shaken but just holding wrappers unevenly sunned internally fine.<br /> <br /> § Privately published in an unknown edition. Worldcat lists copies only at Yale and the Bibliothèque nationale de France although it is not rare in commerce. This copy from the library of Gershon Legman. A collection of fifty bawdy ballads beginning with the venerable and obscene "Les Trois Orfevres a la Saint Eloi." In the forward the compiler under the pseudonym "Vidame de Bozegie" explains the book was demanded by subscribers to his previous work 3 Orfèvres à la Saint-Èloi privately printed in Paris in 1930 who welcomed it as a monument de la chanson étudiant but lamented the lack of printed music. <br /> <br /> In this volume he presents fifty of "the best songs" in "a luxury edition on beautiful paper illustrated with color drawings worthy of a bibliophile." The music for each song is illustrated by pochoir. <br /> The author goes on to state: "I have avoided giving the illustrations an erotic character. They are obviously saucy but do not shock too-puritan eyes. I believe them to be worthy of the text." Puritan eyes would probably disagree in the strongest possible terms but it is true that alongside the lyrics the illustrations are comparatively restrained. <br /> <br /> Gershon Legman the great bibliographer of erotica erotic folklore and origami attributed the work to Edmond Bernard who was responsible for other significant collections of erotic folksongs.

[EROTIC WORLD OF LATE EDO TOKYO - KAWARABAN WITH MAP].
当代色道混雑書全. Tōdai shikidō konzassho zen. Current Information on Sexual Topics
Japan. 1830 -1860. Folded black and white kawaraban woodblock with map showing Tokyo's red light districts. 30.3 x 39.4cm. Light rubbing in one place upper margin a little worming and small closed tear in lower margin. Sheet has been backed with washi. Good copy. This late Edo period kawaraban print provides a wealth of information on the diverse aspects of sexual behaviour and attraction between men and women during this era. Following the traditional kawaraban style the print offers a detailed and varied glimpse into the lives of the time. A fascinating map of Edo's red-light districts playfully drawn with phallus-shaped lines occupies the lower centre. Eight different types of sexual toys are displayed on the left while service fees for brothels are listed above the map. The print even delves into compatibility between the sexes based on zodiac signs along with methods for predicting a baby's sex before birth. During the Edo period eroticism was viewed as another form of popular entertainment particularly for men and was widely accepted as a pastime for adults. . unknown

[EROTICA - DRAWINGS].
Album of erotic drawings.
France 1815. 20th-century red goatskin morocco sewn on 5 cords with the title "Gouaches érotiques" in gold in the 2nd of 6 spine compartments double-combed marbled endpapers pasted over the original marbled pastdown; spot pattern curled. 4to 26 x 21.5 cm. A matching set of 12 erotic drawings image area about 20 x 16 cm in coloured gouaches each showing a man and woman engaged in manual vaginal or oral sex in a richly furnished interior with furniture lamps clocks vases drapery mirrors books clothing architectural ornamentation etc. Each is drawn on thick paperboard and mounted on the album leaves. A matching set of 12 skilfully executed erotic gouache drawings in numerous colours each showing a naked or more often partly undressed young man and woman engaged in manual vaginal or oral sex. Each is set in an interior in at least most cases domestic most of them richly furnished. Though the drawings depict several different men and women some of them seem to appear in more than one drawing. One drawing appears to show a home library another includes a case full of books and two others have an open book lying on the floor. Another has the woman sitting on the man's lap before a writing desk with a quill pen in her hand. These may be intended to suggest that the man is the young lady's tutor and they got distracted from their lessons. The clothing suggests couples from fairly high social standing. The clothing architectural decoration furniture clocks lamps vases etc. much of it in Empire Style suggest a date around 1815 perhaps in France.The drawings are in good condition and the binding fine. unknown
