Historia sexual de los argentinos #2
Argentina con pecado concebida
El sexo ha sido protagonista del nacimiento, el esplendor, la decadencia y la caída de las grandes civilizaciones. Este nuevo ensayo de Federico Andahazi sobre la historia sexual de los argentinos parte de una hipótesis que atraviesa toda la obra: no puede comprenderse la historia de un país si se desconoce el entramado de las relaciones sexuales que lo gestaron. En Argentina con pecado concebida aborda los nuevos cánones morales surgidos desde la Revolución de Mayo hasta el golpe de 1930, a través de los personajes fundacionales más emblemáticos.

A través de la historia argentina la sexualidad ha jugado un papel más importante de lo que se tiene conciencia. Sobre estos hechos, Andahazi intenta hechar luz en esta serie de libros atrapante desde su prosa y la temática propuesta.
Una lectura obligada para conocer mejor a nuestros próceres y sus motivaciones ocultas.

Excelente libro que nos ayuda a entender cómo el poder y las relaciones carnales se entremezclan, de manera tal que cambian el curso de la historia.
