The ancient story of Pero, the daughter who breastfed her father, was of tremendous interest to artists and their audiences from the Renaissance to the Enlightenment. "The Roman Charity" investigates the iconography of Pero and Cimon from the perspective of queer sexuality and erotic maternity. The book explores the popularity of a topic that renders modern viewers uneasy, but appealed to early modern observers for its eroticizing shock value, its ironic take on the venerable concept of "charity", and its implied critique of patriarchal power structures. It tries to understand why and how early modern viewers found an incestuous, adult breastfeeding scene "good to think with", and aims at expanding and queering our notions of early modern sexuality.
