Pornography. Secret History of civilization 2. Printing machine

2 part. Printing machine / The Printing Press. Pornography is the invention of the new time. Neither the relaxed antiquity, nor even the Middle Ages with their illusory bashfulness, nor, moreover, the revival with his love for life did not think to condemn sexual images and texts, considering them part of the human culture. Under the strict gaze of bourgeois morality, sex learned to hide in secluded places and turned into a tireless desire, an obsessive idea, a painful mania that gave rise to pornography in a modern sense. Scientific and popular film about the sources, meanings and consequences of pornography is a great opportunity to think about the nature of the ban, the phenomenon of power, about the burden of human weaknesses that should be accepted, and not poison and drive deeper.
