Abstract

“ Love and sex are the enduring historic riddles of mankind.” ( Remy and Wood ) Literature, like biological evolution, does evolve, adapt and change overtime. Specifically when literature evolves the themes and literary devices central to literature and writing evolve as well. Sex and human nature have therefore been a common theme in literature and genres. The descriptions of sex, and the literary devices used to describe it, have changed drastically over time thus portraying different messages and meanings to readers. Sex is not only a strong literary theme but also a driving force in human reproduction and human nature and is therefore an important evolutionary topic to study.
