Karezza Ethics of Marriage is a book written by Alice B. Stockham that explores the concept of Karezza, a form of sexual intercourse that emphasizes spiritual connection and intimacy between partners. The book delves into the idea that traditional sexual practices can be harmful to both partners and offers an alternative approach to physical intimacy that is based on mutual respect and affection. The author also discusses the importance of self-control and emotional balance in maintaining a healthy and fulfilling relationship. The book is a guide for couples who want to deepen their connection and explore a more meaningful and spiritual approach to their sexual relationship. It is a thought-provoking and insightful read that challenges traditional views on sex and marriage.1896. Karezza was a name coined (from the Italian for caress) by the Victorian reformer Alice Bunker Stockham. It refers to non-religious spiritual sexual practices that draw upon tantric techniques of body control but do not involve any of tantra's cultural or iconographic symbolism. Stockham, an Ob-Gyn from Chicago, and the fifth woman to be made a doctor in the United States, traveled to northern India to learn the secrets of tantra-for example, control of the orgasm response-but she did not have any interest in Eastern religions and she felt that such addenda to the methods were not essential. Her view of spirituality was basically Quaker-Christian, and she fitted sacred sexuality into a Christian paradigm with no apparent difficulty. A most interesting read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
