Abstract

The author’s empirical study approaches new thematic territory. Her research question is the development of female sexuality within and the approach to the body of three generations of women in Iran. The author offers great insight into individual lives and into the social context of the women, providing a comprehensive analysis. The result is apparent already in the title of the work: Female sexuality in Iran seems to move between morality and sensuality.
