194pp, with occasional monochrome illustrations. In laminated, illustrated card covers. 8vo. A little edge wear to covers, single crease on front cover, two on verso. Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. Religion and sex, body and soul, sacred and profane: In Closet Devotions, Richard Rambuss traces the relays between these cultural formations by examining the issue of sacred eroticism - the literary or artistic expression of devotional feelings in erotic terms.
