Abstract
  • This volume of Romantic Circles Praxis includes an editor's introduction by Richard C. Sha, essays by Richard C. Sha, Jonathan Loesberg, Elizabeth Fay, Jillian Hedy-Stevenson, Susan S. Lanser, Bradford K. Mudge, Daniel O'Quinn, David M. Halperin, and Andrew Elfenbein. 

    In How To Do the History of Sexuality, David M. Halperin puts to rest the idea that Michael Foucault meant in the History of Sexuality to separate sexual acts from identity. According to Halperin, Foucault never intended to encourage historians of sexuality to neglect the connections between sexual subjectivities and sexual acts. From this came the idea of creating a volume of essays that would take on the history of sexuality in the Romantic period, and in so doing use Halperin to rethink what we now know to be a pseudo-Foucaultian divorce between acts and identities, a divorce that has made sexual subjectivities before sexology an historical black hole.
