The trope of Pandora's box was already associated with the female body in the previous decade, in Jonathan Swift's "The Lady's Dressing Room",[2] and A Secret History proposes that the female parts "may well have been the original Pandora's box". The connection is found in subsequent erotic fiction as well.[3] References1. ^{{cite book|last=Harvey|first=Karen|title=Reading Sex in the Eighteenth Century: Bodies and Gender in English Erotic Culture|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ZmZ6JyOXW0gC&pg=PA43|accessdate=26 April 2013|year=2004|publisher=Cambridge UP|isbn=9780521822350|pages=42–43}} {{authoritycontrol}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Secret History of Pandora's Box, A}}{{18thC-erotic-novel-stub}}2. ^{{cite journal|last=Harvey|first=Karen|year=2001|title=Gender, Space and Modernity in Eighteenth-Century England: A Place Called Sex|journal=History Workshop Journal|volume=51|pages=158–79|jstor=4289725}} 3. ^1 {{cite book|last=Boucé|first=Paul-Gabriel|editor=Robert P.
