Tasting the Dish: Rabbinic Rhetorics of Sexuality

by Michael L. Satlow

This volume identifies many rabbinic rhetorical strategies applied to issues of sexuality, which is a societal and cultural construct. Satlow examines rabbinic discussions of incest, sex between Jews and Gentiles, non-marital sex, homoeroticism, non-procreative sex, and marital sexuality illustrating that there was no monolithic rabbinic view of sexuality.
