    In today's episode I have the absolute honour of talking to Dr Kathleen Lubey about her new book What Pornography Knows: Sex and Social Protest since the Eighteenth Century.

    Kathleen is a lecturer at St John’s University in Queen’s, New York, USA. She specilises in the literature and culture of eighteenth-century Britain, sexuality and gender studies, the history of pornography, and literature of the British slave trade.

    Her current book, What Pornography Knows: Sex and Social Protest since the Eighteenth Century, examines archival texts to trace currents of feminism and social justice in British pornography from the 1740s to the present.
