I did a Master's dissertation on Greek Homosexuality at the University of London, and a long paper on Medieval homosexuality [45 pages] as part of my doctoral studies at Fordham. I am a now history graduate student at Fordham working on my doctoral dissertation on Sanctity and Gender in 9th and 10th century Byzantium! I also teach ancient history at Queensborough Community College and modern western history at Brooklyn College. I added the non-ancient, non-medieval stuff because I intend to teach courses on queer history at some stage. Paul Halsall Halsall@murray.fordham.edu *************************************************************** Paul Halsall Homosexuality in History - An [Partially] Annotated Bibliography This bibliography is arranged according to subject matter. It originated in a bibliography of medieval homosexuality and so has references to the wider field of the history of all sexuality in this period. A few items appear more than once. Most of the annotations are mine, but some are from the bibliographies whence came the reference. This was compiled in 1990. There are other important works published since then. A good way to keep up is to consult the running bibliographies in the Journal of the History of Sexuality.

Some gay activists substituted polemic for research. Added to this was a distinctly modern disdain of homosexuality by traditional academics. Work of reasonable quality has been done, beginning with Derrick Bailey's Homosexuality and the Western Christian Tradition in 1955 but apart from that work before 1975 has to be treated with caution. Since the mid seventies more thoroughgoing studies have begun, and it is clear that more local studies need to be done before any synthesis can be made. In this bibliography it will be found that the meaning of the word "sodomy", Christian intolerance, homosexuality and the link with heresy and witchcraft, homosexual individuals, canon and secular law, and the existence of a homosexual subculture have all been studied. Lesbian's have remained invisible to most writers. More recently, there has been an increase in the number of studies looking at local areas/cultures - Venice, Florence, Ferrara, Spain, England, Norway - which will eventually offer an opportunity to test the more general statements of wider reaching studies. Source Materials on Medieval Homosexuality There were early studies of the history of homosexuality, but the work of Derrick S. Bailey in 1955 marked a new departure in the use of sources. Bailey's sources were canon law, secular law such as Justinian's Code and barbarian codes, and some writings of church fathers and their medieval successors. Bailey's work was used by many of the other writers in the 1960's and early 1970's. John Boswell also uses these sources but, due to his determination to look not only at negative attitudes to homosexuals, he introduced evidence from sources such as troubadour and other poetry and the writings of monastic authors such as Aelred of Riveaulx. By taking medieval discussions of friendship as relevant to homosexuality, Boswell widened considerably the evidence available for discussion. One of the problems with all these sources is of discerning what they are discussing. The word "homosexual" is a nineteenth century invention, and it is clear that "sodomy" had various meanings in the middle ages. Some writers, taking an extreme realist position, deny that there were any homosexuals as such in the middle ages, only homosexual acts. Their point is that some self-consciousness is required for us to speak of "homosexuals". There is another problem with the sources discussed so far. They are difficult to tie to what was actually happening in particular places to particular individuals. Mostly they are wide in scope and necessitate that the authors who use them talk about "medieval culture" and "Christian attitudes" over large areas and long time periods. The hermeneutical difficulties of using such contrasting sources as seventh century Visigothic law codes and twelfth century monastic writing to say anything consistent about medieval homosexuality are immense. There has been a marked increase in homosexual studies since c.1975, and one of the most noticeable trends is in local studies. Ruggiero, Goodich, Boswell, Monter, Roth and others have used local inquisition records, court records and poetry to present the history of homosexuality from such diverse local areas as Norway and Dubrovnik to Venice and Florence. The opportunity is now available to use these local records to come to more solid conclusions.
