The history of sexuality is central to social history, the history
of ideas, the realization or repression of human rights, and other
areas of focus. This is also true about those who have had, or do
have, what could be called minority sexualities. Same-sex
attraction has generally been a minority sexuality; it has been the
object of tremendous repression and vociferous complaint but also
one of praise by talented poets and philosophers. The A to Z of
Homosexuality provides a comprehensive survey of same-sex relations
from ancient China and Greece to the contemporary world. It covers
the gay rights movement from its origins in 19th century Europe to
the nascent global network today. Philosophic treatments, such as
natural law and queer theory, along with legal issues and court
decisions are included. Global in its coverage of the variety of
same-sex relations, their legal treatment, and social norms
concerning same-sex attraction, this reference includes a
chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and
cross-referenced dictionary entries on specific countries and
regions, influential historical figures, laws that criminalized
same-sex sexuality, various historical terms that have been used to
refer to aspects of same-sex love, and contemporary events and
legal decisions.
