Before Homosexuality in the Arab-Islamic World, 1500-1800
Langbeschreibung
Attitudes toward homosexuality in the premodern Arab-Islamic world are commonly depicted as schizophrenic. This title argues that this apparent paradox is based on the anachronistic assumption that homosexuality is a timeless, self-evident fact to which a particular culture reacts with some degree of tolerance or intolerance.
Khaled El-Rouayheb is assistant professor of Islamic intellectual history in the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations at Harvard University.
