As an erotic discourse which foregrounds the sensory body, libertine writing is deeply invested in representations of the erotic body and its pleasures. Yet, the male body that is erotically emplaced in libertine discourse is rarely an able one. From the Earl of Rochester’s self-described cankered and weepy phallus to Charles Churchill’s syphilitic oozing sores to James Boswell’s raging gonorrhea infection, sexual disease imaginatively infects libertine language just as it also, in a more material sense, courses through libertine practices. Taking recent theorizations of debility as its starting point, this article engages with a well-known poem attributed to John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester, “The Maimed Debauchee”, in order to trace how the libertine’s experience of debility registers as a privileged form of erotic embodiment.","PeriodicalId":39439,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Eighteenth Century Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/SEC.2021.0026","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49219692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some discussions, moreover, have insisted too much upon finding Swift an exemplary poet and moralist. But Ronald Paulson, Marshall Wain grow, and David M. Vieth have spoken of friendship as a topic of the Verses; and I propose, without purporting to rescue the poem from the fascinated uneasiness with which we read it, or to explain away its rhetorical flaws, that a fuller recognition of Swift’s strong emphasis on friendship and enmity would correspondingly benefit our understand ing of the poem’s intended meaning.3 To that end, I seek to show how the poem emphasizes friendship of a particular kind; then, to illuml·","PeriodicalId":39439,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Eighteenth Century Culture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/sec.1979.0011","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49432472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
