Michel Foucault's "The History of Sexuality Vol. 2" (Part 1/3)

In this part, we move to the second volume of the History of Sexuality. In this books, Foucault extends his temporal scope of sexuality to go as far back as the Greeks. Foucault does this for a number of reasons but may, I believe, be understood primarily as his move to dissuade the argument that asceticism, or the control of sexuality, is a phenomenon rooted in the 17th and 18th centuries.
