Abstract

The doctoral thesis of Erika Nussberger at the University of Zurich offers an overview of the numerous published primary sources on “hermaphroditism” through the ages. Even if the book misses a placement of the texts into their respective contemporary social contexts and rarely goes beyond portraying text passages, it nonetheless qualifies as an overview and approach to some literature of that field.
