This is a unique anthology of studies in the Eros of Slavic peoples, mostly Southern Slavs. Among the contributors are scholars from the Czech Republic, Poland, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, and Germany. The anthology also includes a translation of a theoretical work of the German anthropologist F.S. von Krauss (1859-1938). This book introduces numerous little known or unknown facts from the everyday life, art, and literature of the Slavs, who not only used obscenity in specific circumstances, but turned it into inalienable part of their life and culture. Standing order for the second volume is available.
