| Summary | "A Problem in Modern Ethics" by John Addington Symonds is a scholarly inquiry written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the complex subject of sexual inversion, particularly from a philosophical, medical, and legal perspective, intending to shed light on a topic often treated with disdain in Christian societies. Symonds aims to analyze the nature of this phenomenon, offering insights for those in the fields of medical psychology and jurisprudence. At the start of the work, the author sets the stage for a broad exploration of sexual inversion, which he refers to as "inverted sexuality." He highlights the historical and cultural ubiquity of this phenomenon, suggesting it has been misunderstood and stigmatized throughout history. The introduction emphasizes the necessity for scientific investigation into sexual inversion and the significance of openly discussing human passions typically relegated to the shadows. Symonds posits that, despite societal condemnation, these instincts have persisted across cultures and eras, warranting a careful examination of their nature and the moral and legal implications they engender.
