Uranisme et Unisexualité
Paris: Maloine(1896) 363pp.
Item #9114
Raffalovich's landmark study of homosexuality which created a furor in the medical establishment when it appeared. Raffalovich wrote the book to condemn what he considered the "fatuous" French medical opinion about sexual inversion, which concluded that male "inverts" were effeminate degenerates. The idea was so preposterous to Raffalovich that he coined a new term, "unisexuality," for sexual attraction between men. Very good in original green boards (the first state of the book, as issued) with light wear to spine and boards, bumping to corners.
Price: $1,000.00
