Inhaltsangabe

This research explores the Western conceptualizations of non-western patterns of same-sex desire and relates these to the evolution of European attitudes to homosexuality. It contributes to the historiography of western constructions of cultural and sexual "otherness" and aims at unravelling in particular how the construction of modern "sodomite", later "homosexual" identity was intertwined with essentialist definitions of so-called "racial" identity.
