'Prudery is the worst form of Avarice'
Stendhal
'La pruderie est une espèce d'avarice, la pire de toutes'

"Absolutely wonderful !
Years ago I read Images of Lust and was delighted by this new world, strangely absent from many histories of eroticism, art and culture in general. This [website] is really illuminating and sets high standards for websites."

- Antonio Dominguez Leiva, Reader in comparative literature at the University of Burgundy, Dijon.
