Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schnitt leicht befleckt, ansonsten adelloser Zustand / Editing slightly stained, otherwise excellent condition - Allen J. Frantzen challenges the long accepted view that the early Middle Ages tolerated and even fostered same-sex relations and that intolerance of homosexuality developed only late in the medieval period. Frantzen shows that in early medieval Europe the Church did not tolerate same-sex acts; in fact it was an age before people recognized the existenceor the possibilityof the closet. -- Before the Closet uses sexual themes of contemporary opera, dance, and theatre to contextualize same-sex relations in early English sources. Frantzen offers a comprehensive analysis of texts from the seventh to the twelfth century and traces Anglo-Saxon same-sex behavior through the age of Chaucer and into the Renaissance.
