A New Approach to the History of Violence : "Sexual Assault" and "Sexual Abuse" in Europe, 1500-1850.
On the basis of the example of sexualized violence in Zurich between 1500 and 1850, the study criticizes the reduction of violence to illegitimate physical harm and discusses how a history of interpersonal violence in pre-modern Europe could be further developed.
