The Sex Lives of Saints: An Erotics of Ancient Hagiography - Divinations: Rereading Late Ancient Religion
Virginia Burrus
Virginia Burrus argues that the early accounts of the lives of saints are not anti-erotic but rather convey a sublimely transgressive "counter-eroticism" that resists the marital, procreative ethic of sexuality found in other strands of Christian tradition.
