Biography

Sarah L. Jones is a social cultural historian specializing in gender and sexuality, primarily focusing on the histories of modern Britain and America. Her current research delves into the popular life of sexual science print, particularly examining the debates and ideas that sexual science played in shaping early twentieth-century culture. Jones is interested in the relationship between science, sexuality, and print culture, with recent investigations into the history of popular, mass-produced sex advice literature. Additionally, she has written on the histories of sex radicalism and transatlantic 'free love' movements. Engaging the public and university community with her research on gender and sexuality is a key aim of her work. Jones has actively pursued pedagogical innovations and student engagement in undergraduate history programs. She has supervised research projects covering a diverse array of topics, including drag culture, polyamory, Victorian pornography, and LGBTQ+ history, and is excited to mentor students with interests in modern histories of gender, feminism, and sexuality.
