I read this for a college course, called enlightenment literature in our course catalog, but called virgins and whores on the posters. Given the latter half of that second name, reading this makes sense. It is very misogynistic in its portrayal of women, but also fascinating for its portrayal of women's pleasure in a book from the eighteenth century.
