Does the orgasm have a history? An almost incommunicable individual emotion,
yet also a cultural reality, the orgasm is part of our collective experience and also
something separate from it. Its history is that of the hidden body, of forbidden desires,
of flesh constrained by taboos and morality.
In this major new book, Robert Muchembled uncovers a fascinating history of sexual
pleasure and the repression of pleasure that lies at the heart of Western civilization.
Contrary to Foucault, he argues that a powerful repression of the carnal appetites
was established at the very heart of our civilization around the middle of the sixteenth
century, and that it only really lost ground in the 1960s. Producing a fundamental
tension between the libido of each individual and collective ideals, it was a process
that constantly promoted a powerful labour of sublimation throughout this long
period, under the successive cultural covers of religion, philosophy and the laws
of the capitalist market. The coercive system laid down in the seventeenth century
formed the basis for alternate cycles of liberation and constraint, whose fluctuations
were fundamental to the general dynamism of the West because they created the
need to compensate for the mental disequilibrium they caused.
Today, argues Muchembled, the United States remains deeply marked by the
old repressive system, while in Europe this has been shaken by the emergence of
new forms of hedonism. Anchored in the dogma of shameful sensuality and the
concealed body, the repressive system has been disrupted by the sudden irruption
of the female orgasm onto the public stage. Whereas the United States continues
to cultivate a nostalgia for the familial and sexual archetype bequeathed by the
repressive tradition, Europe finds itself in uncharted territory facing new questions
about sexuality, pleasure and the good life.
