This volume examines the growth of high-end literary pornographic productions that took place towards the final quarter of the nineteenth century and were largely published on the continent where control of production was lax. These publications were published and circulated for the elite. Publications that came from this group and period include The Pearl, My Secret Life, Romance of Lust, and The Sins of the Cities of the Plain; or, The Recollections of a Mary-Ann, with Short Essays on Sodomy and Tribadism. The volume includes Home Office and Foreign Office records that detail the methods attempted to limit the spread of pornography.
