Clerical Celibacy


Overview

This book uses the concept of biopolitics, developed by Foucault and Giorgio Agamben, to investigate how sexuality was managed by the Catholic Church and the State as a form of social control in the 19th century. The attempt to abolish the Clerical Celibacy Law, defended by Deputy Diogo Antonio Feijó, reveals the interests that involved the Brazilian empire, the Church, and 19th-century society.
