I picked up an old book of erotica from the 60s that features a collection of surviving erotic drawings and paintings, mostly from European artists, but also some from Asia and the Middle East. There's some wild and fascinating stuff, ranging from a whole lot of women loving demons and devils, surrealist pieces composed entirely of dicks and boobs, time-lapsed pictures of the same woman masturbating in different poses, straight up bestiality, Japanese woodblock erotica, threesomes and lesbian scenes (not a lot of scenes between two men, but the book implies that much of this kind of work has been destroyed, so it's not necessarily a representative sample.) Obviously it's all NSFW or I would post some of it. It's funny to look through it and see stuff made decades or hundreds of years ago and see that it's not significantly different from the weird poo poo you see on any given DeviantArt page today. I think that I and most people have been under the assumption that the internet created the market for weird fetishistic art, but it turns out that humans have literally always been like this. It's kind of sobering, not a feeling I expected when I flipped through a book of old art porn.

I once went to a talk by Jack Cohen and he spoke about being consulted by McCaffrey many times for the biology of her worlds, with them both trying to figure out what makes sense and is scientific. I dunno if I would consider that a weird book though, it's a mainstay of classic scifi literature.

I don't have a scanner and I'm not about to take this to work to do that so my phone camera will have to suffice, unfortunately. The book is simply called Erotic Art 2 by Kronhausen. I just picked out a few that caught my attention, but the book has a ton of examples. The subjects range from straightforward heterosexual lovemaking to pedophilia and bestiality, some are mostly realistic sketches while others indulge in deep fantasy or distort time and perspective. It's a fascinating book for its age because it makes me realize that some of the themes I've seen that I assumed were inventions of the internet have had precedence in art generations removed. These are all very so I'll provide a description of it if you don't want to look at it. Here is some 200-odd year old cucking.. A regal looking man with a scepter and a crown on his three foot erection carries an rear end. The credit on this one is Félicien Rops, 1833-98. Top: a faun or satyr sort of creature masturbates. Bottom: tentacles. More Rops. Top left depicts a dapper man-sized erection in a suit. Top right is a flaccid man-sized dick whose balls hang from his chin to his knees. Bottom is a satyr impaling a woman from vagina to mouth with an eight foot erection. The woman appears to be enjoying it nonetheless. A giant chariot made out of cocks driven by nude women with Roman-like garb and being pulled by naked men. Bonus cunnilingus sketches. This is my favorite one because of how it distorts space to give two very different impressions. I'm sure there's an art term for that but I don't know it. The woman simultaneously occupies two drastically different but dramatic poses, with the only shared vector being her vulva, and her belly button, which serves also as her anus. It's such a strange take on the concept of an erotic drawing that I find it to be a really interesting piece. There's an example of what I can only describe as a 100 year-old depiction of futanari, but the girl in the drawing has a very uncelar age so I'm not going to risk it. Apparently this is the second volume so I wonder what's in the first. Heath fucked around with this message at 06:35 on Nov 7, 2019 |

I've got a bit of an effort-post on the stove for this thread, but in the meantime, please enjoy the dopiest pulp smut title I have ever seen. I cannot find any information about this book, which is a pity since I would just love to know how an author working in this genre in 1971 contrived to combine sex and computers.

I've posted so many books at this point that not all of them are as weird and wonderful as some of the others. Still, most sci fi/ fantasy books seem pretty weird to me. That is neat that she tried to make dragon books as realistic as possible. I like when authors put in that extra effort.

I'm reminded of some bawdy drawing I've seen based on Gargantua and Pantagruel by Francoise Rabelais, which is a very dirty old novel, especially the second and third books (I think) that feature the character Panurge.

I've never read it, but he mentions it a lot in his excellent Greek Myths collection, and in Hebrew Myths (co-written with Raphael Patai) as well. He might even mention in in his notes to his translation of Suetonius, now that I think about it. In short, I need to read this one of these days. Let me know what you think of it.

This puts me in mind of Joseph Mitchell, in his classic King of the Gypsies (NB there's no doubt in my mind that everyone who reads this thread knows it well.) Strikes me as the kind of junk that would keep getting rejacketed long after its shelf life had expired. NB although it's brilliantly characterised and evocative, this semi-fictionalized essay is fairly antizyganitsic by any contemporary standard, and should be read as a document of its time!
