| Summary | "Histoire de la prostitution chez tous les peuples du monde depuis l'antiquité" by Pierre Dufour is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This extensive work explores the phenomenon of prostitution, tracing its evolution and societal implications from ancient times up to the 19th century. It delves into various cultures, morals, and religious affectations regarding prostitution and sexual mores throughout history. The opening of the book introduces the theme of Christian views on marriage and chastity compared to pagan practices. It highlights the transformative impact of Christian teachings, particularly through the efforts of Saint Paul, who promotes chastity and denounces the sexual excesses of pagan society. The text sets the stage for a detailed examination of how Christianity sought to reform moral standards and eradicate prostitution as part of establishing a new religious order. Dufour emphasizes the rigorous moral code that emerged alongside the spread of Christianity, detailing the struggles and teachings that marked this significant cultural shift.
