Pornoboscodidascalus Latinus: De Lenonum Lenarum, Conciliatricum, Servitiorum, Dolis Veneficiis, Machinis Plus Quam Diabolicis, De Miseriis Iuvenam [Latin]

by Fernando de Rojas

This book is a little-known satirical work from 16th-century Spain, written by Fernando de Rojas, the author of the famous novel La Celestina. The book is a parody of the genre of didactic literature and purports to be a handbook for pimps and prostitutes, teaching them the art of seduction and deception. The text is full of puns, wordplay, and obscene jokes, and provides a fascinating window into the moral and social attitudes of the Renaissance era. This book will appeal to lovers of satire and those interested in the history of sexuality and gender.
