The account of the sacrifice performed by Noah on leaving the ark (Gen. 8.20-1) is certainly one of the most enigmatic moments in the first chapters of Genesis. How are we to understand this sacrifice, which God does not command, but which immediately precedes a radical transformation of the discourse that God addresses to Noah, a discourse which might seem to return to his very first address to Adam, but which in reality introduces between man and the animals the weapon of a domination by terror. We will be interested in the different interpretations that have marked this story in Christian exegesis and in the various manifestations of the iconography that has been used to convey it.

Stemming from the work by Marzio Barbagli, the present essay aims at investigating Western sexual morality focusing on the study of the history of prostitution in the Nineteen and Twentieth centuries. In this sense, it will show how positivist medical and anthropological theories, heirs of ancient sexual and gender prejudices, were able to convey the values of a sexual morality that, on the one hand, legitimated the exercise of female prostitution as a phenomenon necessary to ward man’s well-being, while on the other hand it stigmatized male prostitution, especially if homosexual, as a symbol of a lost, ideologically characterized, virility.

The article presents an overview of sources on Africa and global communism that cover the period between 1920s and 1970s and are stored in the central archives of the Russian Federation (RGASPI, RGANI, GARF, RGAE, AVP RF). It also provides information on documentary collections and digitalised sources. Without claiming to be exhaustive, this presentation aims to introduce major collections, to outline possible research directions and to facilitate therefore the study of this vast subject for non-Russian scholars, when work in Russian archives becomes more accessible again.

The essay examines the positions of Catholic doctrine in the early modern age on the connection between sacrifice and sexuality. It was examined a body of moral literature characterised by different levels of specialisation and relative recipients: manuals of spiritual instruction aimed at educated readers but not necessarily members of the clergy, texts for confessors and judges settling matrimonial disputes, works of wide circulation and others that remained in the shadows. A common line emerges: the sacrificial condition is desirable and necessary, and the conjugal status is hopelessly second to that, far more noble, far more sacrificial, of the religious devoted to celibacy.

Researching the sex work market is a difficult endeavour, both for past and present times. Indeed, this market has often been largely hidden, and at least partially criminalised. The very definition of what is prostitution has been, and still is, contested. Studying its evolution throughout the centuries, looking at different cases in Europe and the United States, can be useful to the understanding of injustices experienced by the people, women and others, who sell sex.
