''Die Sexualität im Kulturkampf'' ("sexuality in the culture war"), 1936 (published later in English as ''The Sexual Revolution''), is a work by Wilhelm Reich.〔Fraenkel 92, p. 9–11.〕 The subtitle is "zur sozialistischen Umstrukturierung des Menschen" ("for the socialist restructuring of humans"), the double title reflecting the two-part structure of the work.〔 The first part "analyzes the crisis of the bourgeois sexual morality" and the failure of the attempts of "sexual reform" that preserved the frame of capitalist society (marriage and family). The second part reconstructs the history of the sexual revolution that took place with the establishment of the Soviet Union since 1922, and which was opposed by Joseph Stalin in the late 1920s.〔Fraenkel 92, p. 11.〕 ==Significant differences among editions== Starting with the 1945 English edition, the following German, French and Italian editions had an unexplained change in the title: ''The Sexual Revolution''. Such title changed "not only the perspective, but also the methodology", resulting in a misleading presentation of the actual work contained in the book.〔Fraenkel 92, pp. 12–14〕 More instructive is the change of the subtitle: from ''for the socialist restructuring of humans'' to ''toward a self-governing character structure''. The editions since 1945, also had a number of "reshuffles, terminology changes and abuses by editors", some of which were intended to "disguise the communist-revolutionary orientation", to avoid hurting the susceptible American public.〔Fraenkel 92, p.15〕 There are also crucial omissions and changes to the content; while the original edition (1936), based its theory on the "rejection of the family institution as such", the softened versions reject just the "authoritarian family structure", aiming to replace it with a "better and more natural form of family".〔Fraenkel 92, p.17〕 Other omissions or changes affected the "terms regarding religion, class society, radical left politics, the 'bourgeois' attribute referred to family, morality or sexuality, proletariat, etc.〔Fraenkel 92, p.18〕 In 1992, Italian publisher Erre Emme, published for the first time not only an integral 1936 edition,〔''La rivoluzione sessuale'', editions Erre Emme, Rome 1992.〕 but also integrations showing the changes of the 1945 edition, in order to allow a scientific confrontation.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Die Sexualität im Kulturkampf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
