This provocative essay, written in Twains signature conversational style, presents a critical examination of the societal attitudes toward masturbation in the late 19th century. Twain engages with the prevailing moral and medical discourses of his time, combining humor with earnest inquiry, ultimately challenging the stigma surrounding the act and urging a more enlightened understanding of human sexuality. The work reflects both the literary depth and the cultural anxieties of the era, making it a compelling read for those interested in historical perspectives on sexual health. Mark Twain, a stalwart figure of American literature, often infused his writing with elements of personal experience and social commentary. His upbringing in a puritanical society, coupled with his extensive travels and exposure to diverse cultural norms, shaped his views on propriety and personal freedom. Twains exploration of complex subjects, such as sexuality, was driven by his commitment to truth and his disdain for hypocrisy, lending his works a distinct authenticity and relatability. This book is recommended for readers seeking a nuanced exploration of a sensitive topic, framed within the context of Twains sharp intellect and humor. Twains insights encourage readers to confront societal taboos with curiosity and open-mindedness, making this essay a vital addition to the canon of American literature and a surprising yet enlightening investigation into human nature.</p>...1035076On Masturbation: "Some Thoughts on the Science of Onanism"4545https://www.gandhi.com.mx/on-masturbation-some-thoughts-on-the-science-of-onanism/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/835314/8996d3d3-82f6-4833-ab91-85b2b449800b.jpg?v=638443706474700000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20228596547000808_W3siaWQiOiJjYzg0MjExYS02ODJjLTRhNTQtOGY5ZC1jMDc1OWYyM2YwMDkiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ1LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo0NSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDEtMjhUMTc6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d8596547000808_<p>One evening in Paris in 1879, The Stomach Club, a society of American writers and artists, gathered to drink well, to eat a good dinner and hear an address by Mark Twain. He was among friends and, according to the custom of the club, he delivered a humorous talk on a subject hardly ever mentioned in public in that day and age. After the meeting, he preserved the manuscript among his papers. It was finally printed in a pamphlet limited to 50 copies 64 years later. The speech satirically dealt with masturbation and the bane it is on our society. His remarks rubbed Victorian society the wrong way, and were censored for a century. Mark Twain (pseudonym of Samuel Langhorne Clemens) (1835-1910), quintessential American humorist, lecturer, essayist, and author wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.</p>...(*_*)8596547000808_<p>In Mark Twains controversial book On Masturbation: Some Thoughts on the Science of Onanism, Twain delves into a topic considered taboo during his time period - the act of self-pleasure.
