Front Cover
Routledge, 1992 - History - 413 pages
Built on detailed research, Child-Loving traces the growth of Victorian - and modern - concepts of the child and child sexuality. Kincaid argues that the Victorians regarded children in ways that now seem complex and bizarre. However, he also asks if we fare any better today.
