- Idler editor Tom Hodgkinson talks to historian and author Julie Peakman about sex in Georgian London.
In this clip, Julie reveals sex in Georgian London from the women’s points of view. She undercuts the traditional image of a bawdy eighteenth century to expose a more sordid underside of women's lives left distressed, ostracized and vilified for their sexual behaviour.
Julie Peakman is a historian and author of many books on the history of sexuality. She is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and Honorary Fellow at Birkbeck College, University of London. She is a frequent contributor to academic journals, national newspapers and popular magazines and has worked on television documentaries for the BBC, Channel 4, Sky and the Biography Channel.
