Homosexuality A History
Vern Bullough
Meridian Books, NY, 1979. First Meridian Books Edition, paperback. In quite good shape with yellowing to the pages and slight chipping to the front and rear covers.
From the publisher:
"The record of practices and prejudices moves from biblical and classical through early and medieval Christian, Renaissance, and Victorian times, to our own era of dramatic changes. It looks at prominent figures who were homosexuals, the theories that have flourished and faded, the differing attitudes toward male and female homosexuality, persecution, and contemporary changes. This classic work is a fascinating historical perspective of all the factors that have shaped and changed our attitudes from ancient times to the present."
It all sounds a bit droll, but Bullough, a renowned sexologist, provides a humanistic look at homosexuality through the ages. While a bit outdated, an important and ambitious work.
