Description

James VI and I was the most prominent homosexual figure in the early modern period.

Young has amassed the evidence surrounding James and related it to the larger history of homosexuality.

The result is a synthesis of old and new history that illuminates Jacobean politics and challenges many current assumptions about effeminacy, manliness, sodomy, sexual constructs and sexual discourse before the eighteenth century.
