O knihe

This antiquarian book contains the first volume of Havelock Ellis's 1937 collection of essays, "On Life and Sex - Essays of Love and Virtue". These essays aim to set forth certain principles of virtue and sexuality, and were originally meant to be read by young people during adolescence. A timeless volume, "On Life and Sex" would make for a worthy addition to any collection of antiquarian literature. It will appeal to fans of Ellis's work, as well as those seeking to learn more about society and relationships throughout history. Contents include: "Children and Parents", "The Meaning of Purity", "The Objects of Marriage", "Husbands and Wives", "The Love-Rights of Women", "The Play-Function of Sex", and "The Individual and the Race". Henry Havelock Ellis (1859 - 1939), also referred to as Havelock Ellis, was an English physician, writer, and social reformer who studied human sexuality. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
