2. [104] _Handbuch fuer Untersuchungerichter_ (_Manual for Police Magistrates_), Part I. p. 110, 5th ed., Munich, 1908. [105] _Aprosexia_ is the technical term for inability to fix the mind upon any subject. [106] In the first book of _Les Confessions_. [107] Strodtmann, _H. Heines Leben und Werke_, vol. i. p. 27 _et seq._, Berlin, 1873. [108] _Fisiologia del Amore_. [109] _Les Femmes homicides_, Paris, 1908. p. 39 _et seq._ [110] "Beitraege zur Kenntnis der Lebens- und Entwicklungsbedingungen der Inder" ("Contributions to our Knowledge of the Conditions of Life and Development of the Natives of India"), _Archiv fuer Rassen- und Gesellschaftsbiologie_, 1907, p. 839 et seq. [111] _Archiv fuer Rassen- und Gesellschaftsbiologie_, 1906, p. 916. [112] We are irresistibly reminded, in this connexion, of the reputed higher morality of age as compared with youth, of which La Rochefoucauld says (Maxim 192): "When our vices leave us, we flatter ourselves that it is we who leave them."--TRANSLATOR'S NOTE. [113] Esquirol refers to this in his great work on Mental Disorders. [114] _Die Sittlichkeitsverbrecher_ (_Offenders against Sexual Morality_). See also _Vierteljahrsschrift fuer gerichtliche Medizin und offentliche Sanitaetswesen_, Third Series, xxix, 2. [115] The custom of taking in a man as a night-lodger in crowded working-class tenements appears, unhappily, to be commoner in the large towns of Germany and Austria than it is in this country. See, for instance, Adelheid Popp's _Jugendgeschichte einer Arbeiterin_ (3rd ed., Reinhardt, Munich, 1910, pp. 19, 20). But such lodgers are by no means unknown in the overcrowded quarters of English towns.--TRANSLATOR'S NOTE. [116] _Psychiatrische Vorlesungen_, Leipzig, 1892, p. 41. [117] Compare George Meredith on the male egoist's demand for "innocence" (_The Egoist_, p. 105): "The capaciously strong soul among women will ultimately detect an infinite grossness in the demand for purity infinite, spotless bloom." The frequency with which young widows remarry suggests that the demand for _"innocence"_ in women is largely "a result of conventional opinions."--TRANSLATOR'S NOTE. [118] _La Prostitution Clandestine_, p. 41 _et seq._, Paris, 1885. [119] _The Intermediate Sex,_ Swan Sonnenschein, London, 1908, p. 86. [120] Werthauer, _Sittlichkeitsdelikte der Grosstadt_ (_Offences against Morality in Large Towns_), p. 78 _et seq._, Berlin and Leipzig
