从美国，英国和澳大利亚的主要材料绘制，我们探讨了复杂和矛盾的方式，性的孩子和无辜的构建，并在19世纪中期至20世纪初的社会纯洁性话语的理解。儿童的性欲被自相矛盾地概念化为一种无处不在的、无限的性欲力量，并被视为一个可以进行教育干预的柔软场所。我们认为，在纯洁文学中，腐败的性伴侣的话语生产是一种尝试，以解开纯洁改革者对童年性行为的矛盾建构，以及对现代城市生活的更大的文化焦虑。性儿童证实了社会纯洁性的叙述，因为它是无辜的定义和可能性的范畴。
Drawing on primary materials from the United States, England and Australia, we explore the complex and contradictory manner in which the sexual child and innocence was constructed and made intelligible within social purity discourses in the mid 19th to early 20th century. The sexuality of the child was paradoxically conceptualized as a ubiquitous and boundless erotic force and as a pliable site for pedagogical intervention. We contend that the discursive production of the corrupt sexual companion, within purity literature, was an attempt to disentangle purity reformers' ambivalent construction of childhood sexuality as well as larger cultural anxieties about modern urban living. The sexual child validated social purity narratives because it was the category against which innocence was defined and made possible.1
