Prostitution ist scheinbar genauso alt wie die Menschheit selbst und gilt nicht von ungefahr als das alteste Gewerbe uberhaupt. Dieser Band versteht sich als interdisziplinare, chronologisch sowie global umfassende Analyse des Phanomens und bietet dem Fachpublikum und dem interessierten Leser gleichermassen eine breite Darstellung der Prostitution aus historischer, soziologischer, genderorientierter sowie kulturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive. Untersucht werden dabei die Rolle von Prostituierten in der Gesellschaft, die Rezeption des Gewerbes per se sowie die Rahmenbedingungen, unter denen sich ein solches etablieren kann.
Prostitution seems to be as old as humanity itself and is consequently not described as the oldest profession without cause. This anthology is an interdisciplinary, chronological and regional extensive approach to analyze the phenomenon. It provides a broad historical, sociological, cultural, and gender perspective on prostitution for the academic as well as the interested reader alike. It examines the role of prostitutes in society, the reception of the profession per se and the conditions due to which it is established.
