The Seduction of the Mediterranean : Writing, Art and Homosexual Fantasy, Paperback / softback Book

The Seduction of the Mediterranean : Writing, Art and Homosexual Fantasy Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Through an explanation of forty figures in European culture, ^The Seduction of the Mediterranean> argues that the Mediterranean, classical and contemporary, was the central theme in homoerotic writing and art from the 1750s to the 1950s.

Episodes of exile, murder, drug-taking, wild homosexual orgies and court cases are woven into an original study of a significant theme in European culture.

The myth of a homoerotic Mediterranean made a major contribution to general attitudes towards Antiquity, the Renaissance and modern Italy and Greece.
