Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a remarkable collection of early German printed ephemera, known as âFlying Sheets,â created between the 15th and 18th centuries. These ephemeral broadsides offer a unique window into the cultural mindset of the era, particularly regarding the perception of anomalies of the human body, both real and imagined. The author has carefully curated a fascinating assemblage of these illustrated sheets, providing valuable insights into the fears, superstitions, and beliefs of the time. The book sheds light on how physical abnormalities, such as conjoined twins, dwarfism, and hermaphroditism, were interpreted and sensationalized. These âwonders of natureâ were often depicted in exaggerated and distorted ways, reflecting both a fascination with the extraordinary and a deep-seated fear of the unknown. The author traces the historical roots of these beliefs, drawing connections to ancient Greek and Roman mythology and religious practices. By analyzing the cultural and social context of these âFlying Sheets,â the author offers a nuanced understanding of how people in the past grappled with the complexities of human biology and the boundaries of normality.
