Overview: Une histoire du plaisir et du désir au Japon sur quatre siècles, du raffinement et de l'inventivité effrénée de la période Edo (17e-19e s.), à travers les érotiques estampes shunga, les geishas et leurs quartiers de plaisir, les samouraïs et leur passion pour les éphèbes, aux moeurs corsetées et à la sexualité bridée du début du 20e siècle, sous l'influence d'un Occident moralisateur, jusqu'aux produits standardisés et mondialisés laissant exploser les fantasmes les plus outranciers à partir des années 1960. La première étude d'envergure sur les pratiques et les contradictions en matière de sexe et de rapports hommes-femmes au pays de Nagisa Oshima, par deux grands spécialistes du Japon.Pierre-François Souyri, professeur émérite à l'université de Genève, est sans doute l'un des meilleurs historiens européens du Japon.
