The Taboo of the Perverse Dying Body
2014
A human being is continuously living towards death within a mortal body that is dying little by little, second after second. In the gloss of popular media, the taboo reality of this stain of mortality is hidden by a diversion, which is created by the multiple pornographies of visual culture: the pornography of perfect bodies and the pornography of violent death. No longer invisible or ‘unspeakable’, the taboo body has been appropriated to serve a function in the mainstream didactics. Both the lusus naturae of natural bodies and the decay of sickness and death are squeezed into such roles in the postmodern visual narrative that the mortality of the human being appears unlikely and accidental…
Pecat amagat és mitg perdonat.... La polèmica entre mossèn Gudiol i Antoni Bulbena a ran de les edicions bibliòfiles de llibres eròtics
2014
Resum: El desembre de 1911 aparegué a la premsa local de Vic un article que va aixecar molta polseguera entre els bibliòfils de tot Catalunya. Un mossèn –historiador de l’art i gran moralista- acusava un conegut editor de llibres de bibliofília –sense dir-ne el nom-, d’editar llibres luxosos de contingut priàpic (pornogràfic). Aquest fet anecdòtic ens serveix per saber qui era l’editor esmentat, què hi havia de cert en l’»acusació» i com va encaixar el vituperat veure’s exposat a la vergonya pública. La correspondència creuada entre els dos protagonistes, exclusivament per mitjà d’un amic comú, ens facilita l’anàlisi de l’argumentari de l’un i de l’altre. Això ens permet copsar com s’enteni…

Sexuality in the Internet Era: Expressions of Hispanic Adolescent and Young People

ABSTRACTCybersex is an important manifestation of sexuality among adolescents and young people.

Strange bedfellows
2007
Feminist debates on pornography have relied on articulations of affect, from anti-pornography rhetoric of grief, anger and disgust to anti-anti-pornography claims to enjoyment and pleasure. The complexity of reading, the interpenetration of affect and analysis, experience and interpretation tend to become effaced in arguments both for and against pornography. This article argues for the necessity of moving beyond the affective range of disgust versus pleasure in feminist studies of pornography. Drawing on theorizations of reading and affect, particularly Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick’s discussion of ‘paranoid’ and ‘reparative’ reading, it investigates the possibilities of analysing commercial emai…
