Synopsis

Psychopathia Sexualis is a comprehensive medical and forensic study of various sexual disorders, with a particular focus on the antipathic sexual instinct. Written by Richard von Krafft-Ebing, a pioneering Austrian psychiatrist and sexologist, the book explores the nature, causes, and effects of abnormal sexual behavior, including homosexuality, sadism, masochism, fetishism, and pedophilia. Krafft-Ebing draws on a wide range of clinical cases, historical examples, and literary references to illustrate the different forms of sexual deviance and to examine their psychological and physiological roots. He also discusses the legal and ethical implications of sexual aberrations, including their potential for criminality and their impact on personal and social relationships. Originally published in 1886, Psychopathia Sexualis remains a seminal work in the field of sexology and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of human sexuality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
