Bøger af John Cleland

Den unge Fannys er glædespige i Londons dekadente og mere dunkle miljø; et miljø af andre glædespiger og bordeller, og hun kommer ud for frivole og barske oplevelser. Bogen er en bramfri førstehåndsberetning – med vid, munterhed og en ikke alt for blufærdig tilgang til tilværelsen fortæller den nittenårige Fanny om sine eskapader. En historie om livsglade unge piger, der tjener til livets ophold ved gladelig at levere varen til mænd, der i dén grad efterspørger den. Samtidig er det en klassisk historie om ægte kærlighed, unge elskende, savn og … tja, afsavn er ikke det rigtige ord.Det blev brevromanen om glædespigen Fanny, der sikrede den engelske forfatter John Cleland (1709-1789) en usvigelig sikker plads i litteraturhistorien. Romanen om Fanny Hill blev oprindelig udgivet i England 1748-49. Skønt bogen senere blev forbudt, og forfatteren røg i fængsel, blev den en enorm læsersucces i samtiden. Den første danske oversættelse af Fannys erindringer kom så sent som i 1965. Men da man – stadig i 1960’ernes midte – forestillede sig, at dette var lige barsk nok kost for de danske læsere, måtte udgivelsen en tur omkring Højesteret, før udgivelsen blev tilladt. Til gengæld blev den danske udgave det litterære startskud til pornografiens frigivelse i 1967. Den nye danske oversættelse af Fanny Hill rammer lige ned i den aktuelle bølge af erotisk litteratur.

Fanny Hill: or, the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (1749) is an erotic novel and early work of pornography by English author John Cleland. Written while Cleland was in prison, the novel was both successful and controversial, banned from publication but widely distributed in pirated and heavily edited copies. Fanny Hill: or, the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure was the subject of numerous court cases, including a prominent United States Supreme Court decision in 1966 which found that the book did not violate obscenity laws.Using extensive euphemism, Cleland¿s novel is the story of Frances ¿Fanny¿ Hill. Narrated in two letters to a friend known only as ¿Madam,¿ the book traces Fanny¿s early life as an orphan-turned-prostitute. After the death of her parents from smallpox, Fanny moves from Lancashire to London to work at a brothel, where she witnesses and participates in numerous sexual acts with women and men of all ages. When her lover Charles is sent abroad, Fanny becomes the mistress of a wealthy merchant who later abandons her. While earning a living working for wealthy clients in a high-end brothel, Fanny witnesses wilder and increasingly dangerous sexual encounters, eventually retiring to a life as the lover of an older intellectual. Recognized as an early and controversial pornographic novel, Fanny Hill: or, the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure is important for its groundbreaking depictions of queer sex and fetish and continues to be read and studied to this day.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of John Cleland¿s Fanny Hill: or, the Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure is a classic of pornographic and erotic literature reimagined for modern readers.

The World Fertility Survey is probably the largest social survey ever undertaken. its operational period (1974 to 1982) coinicided with the emergence of new trends in fertility behaviour which are of the utmost importance, and the WFS has played a major role in documenting and understanding these trends.

Classic Erotica. The Memoirs of Fanny Hill: Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure by John Cleland. A new and genuine edition from the original text (London, 1749). Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure (popularly known as Fanny Hill, an anglicisation of the Latin mons veneris, mound of Venus) is an erotic novel by English novelist John Cleland first published in London in 1748. Written while the author was in debtors' prison in London, it is considered "the first original English prose pornography, and the first pornography to use the form of the novel". It is one of the most prosecuted and banned books in history. The novel was published in two instalments, on 21 November 1748 and in February 1749, by Fenton Griffiths and his brother Ralph under the name "G. Fenton". There has been speculation that the novel was at least partly written by 1740, when Cleland was stationed in Bombay as a servant of the British East India Company. Initially, there was no governmental reaction to the novel. However, in November 1749, a year after the first instalment was published, Cleland and Ralph Griffiths were arrested and charged with "corrupting the King's subjects." In court, Cleland renounced the novel and it was officially withdrawn.

The book is written as a series of letters from Frances "Fanny" Hill to an unknown woman, with Fanny justifying her life-choices to this individual. At the beginning of her tale, Fanny Hill is a young girl with a rudimentary education living in a small village near Liverpool. Shortly after she turns 15, both her parents die. Esther Davis, a girl from Fanny's village who has since moved to London, convinces Fanny to move to the city as well, but Esther abandons Fanny once they arrive. Fanny hopes to find work as a maid, and is hired by Mrs. Brown, a woman she believes to be a wealthy lady. Mrs. Brown is in fact a madam (pimp) and intends the innocent Fanny to work for her as a prostitute. Mrs. Brown's associate, Phoebe Ayers, shares a bed with Fanny and introduces her to sexual pleasure. Mrs. Brown plans to sell Fanny's virginity to an ugly old man, but Fanny is repulsed by the man and struggles with him. She is saved from rape by Mrs. Brown's maid. After this ordeal, Fanny falls into a fever for several days. Mrs. Brown, realizing that Fanny's virginity is still intact, decides to sell Fanny's sexual favors to the exceedingly rich Lord B., who is due to arrive in a few weeks.Fanny spies on Mrs. Brown having sex with a large, muscular man. She talks to Phoebe, who assures her that it is possible for a young girl to have sex with a well-endowed man. She takes Fanny to spy on another prostitute, Polly Phillips, having sex with a handsome and well-endowed young Genovese merchant. Afterward, Phoebe and Fanny engage in mutual masturbation and Fanny looks forward to her first time having sex with a man.Soon afterward, Fanny meets Charles, a 19-year-old wealthy nobleman, and they fall in lust instantly. Charles helps Fanny escape the brothel the next day, and takes her to his flat at St. James's, London, and introduces her to his landlady, Mrs. Jones. For many months, Charles visits Fanny almost daily to have sex. Fanny works hard to become more educated and urbane. After eight months, Fanny becomes pregnant. Three months later, Charles mysteriously disappears. Mrs. Jones learns that he has been kidnapped by his father and sent to the South Seas to win a fortune. Upset by the news that Charles will be gone for at least three years, Fanny miscarries and falls ill. She is nursed back to health by Mrs. Jones, but sinks into a deep depression.

The book is a scientific study of cell life and pathology, exploring the evolution and expression of cells and their role in the human body. Cleland's work is divided into three parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of cell life. The first part explores the evolution of cells, examining their origins and how they have evolved over time. The second part delves into the expression of cells, discussing how they communicate with one another and how they work together to form tissues and organs. The third and final part of the book examines the role of cells in disease and pathology, discussing how they can become damaged or diseased and how this can affect the body as a whole.Throughout the book, Cleland uses a combination of scientific research and his own observations to provide a comprehensive understanding of cell life and pathology. He also includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers visualize the complex processes he describes.Overall, Evolution, Expression, And Sensation: Cell Life And Pathology is a seminal work in the field of cell biology, offering a detailed and insightful exploration of the fundamental building blocks of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
