Synopsis
When in history can we find the earliest evidence for same-sex relationships? How have different societies understood gender? In what ways has the LGBTQ+ rights movement transformed the world in the last 150 years? This book explores answers to these questions and many more, detailing pivotal ideas and events in LGBTQ+ history and culture and across the breadth of the LGBTQ+ experience. The LGBTQ+ History Book provides clear and concise explanations of key events, movements, and cultural milestones. It brings often overlooked and hidden histories to life, and is packed with memorable quotations from LGBTQ+ figures, bold illustrations, and stop-by-step diagrams that untangle complex concepts and cut through jargon. Whether you are eager to discover more about LGBTQ+ history, a history student looking to broaden your knowledge, or an armchair reader, you'll find plenty to inspire and engage you in this book., Discover the rich and complex history of LGBTQ+ people around the world - their struggles, triumphs, and cultural contributions. Exploring and explaining the most important ideas and events in LGBTQ+ history and culture, this book showcases the breadth of the LGBTQ+ experience. This diverse, global account explores the most important moments, movements, and phenomena, from the first known lesbian love poetry of Sappho to Kinsey's modern sexuality studies, and features biographies of key figures from Anne Lister to Audre Lorde. Dive deep into the pages of The LGBTQ + History book to discover: - Thought-provoking graphics and flow charts demystify the central concepts behind key moments in LGBTQ+ history, from eromenos and erastes in the Ancient World to political lesbianism. - Features insightful quotes from leading historians, philosophers, cultural commentators, economists, anthropologists, sociologists, activists, and politicians. - Includes biography boxes and directory entries on the lives of important but lesser-known individuals, alongside well-known names including Sappho, Oscar Wilde, Anne Lister, Harvey Milk, and Marsha P. Johnson. - Global in scope with a localizable directory. The LGBTQ+ History Book celebrates the victories and untold triumphs of LGBTQ+ people throughout history, such as the Stonewall Riots and first gender affirmation surgeries, as well as commemorating moments of tragedy and persecution, from the Renaissance Italian "Night Police" to the 20th century "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy. The book also includes major cultural cornerstones - the secret language of polari, Black and Latine ballroom culture, and the many flags of the community - and the history of LGBTQ+ spaces, from 18th-century "molly houses" to modern "gaybourhoods". The LGBTQ+ History Book celebrates the long, proud - and often hidden - history of LGBTQ+ people, cultures, and places from around the world.
