Inhalt
This global history of the lives of gay men and lesbian women from the earliest civilizations to the present day takes us on a radical journey from Bacchanalian orgies to Gay Pride and shows that homosexuality has always been present in society. This book dramatically highlights the positive attitudes of bygone generations and cultures, as opposed to 19th-century views of the »disease« of homosexuality. There has long been an assumption in the West that views on sex and sexuality are basically similar worldwide. This has never been the case. Many ancient cultures actively promoted same-sex relationships as an integral part of adolescence or even worship. The rise of Judaeo-Christian views forced homosexuality »underground«, leading to Henry VIII's 1535 ban on homosexuals and Oscar Wilde's imprisonment for »sodomy«.
