Surveys attitudes in the ancient world toward homoeroticism, that is, erotic same-sex relations, focusing on the Bible and its cultural environment -- Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome, Israel. Homoeroticism is examined as a part of gender identity, i.e., the interplay of sexual orientation, gender identification, gender roles, and sexual practice. In the patriarchal cultures of the biblical world, Nissinen shows, homoerotic practices were regarded as a role construction between the active and passive partners rather than as expressions of an orientation moderns call "homosexuality." Nissinen shows how this applies to the limited acceptance of homoerotic relationships in Greek and Roman culture, as well as to Israel's and the early church's condemnation of any same-sex erotic activity.

La Bible parle-t-elle de l'homosexualité ? Très peu ! Trois exégètes chrétiens, deux catholiques et un protestant, relèvent le défi de lire le texte biblique sans tabou ni préjugé et sans recourir à des interprétations personnelles ou ecclésiales. Innocent Himbaza étudie les récits souvent cités dans les discussions sur l'homosexualité comme l'histoire de Sodome (Genèse 19), celle des hommes de Guivéa (Juges 19), l'amour entre Jonathan et David dont l'histoire est racontée dans les livres de Samuel. Adrien Schenker relit les lois du Lévitique (18 et 20) et la règle de conduite qu'elles énoncent en les replaçant dans leur contexte immédiat. Il peut ainsi répondre à la question de savoir pourquoi la pratique de l'amour homosexuel est interdite par la loi de Moïse. Le Nouveau Testament dit-il autre chose que l'Ancien ? Jean-Baptiste Edart étudie les textes de Paul sur les pratiques homosexuelles (Romains 1 ; 1 Corinthiens 6 ; 1 Timothée 1), puis se demande dans quelle mesure les évangiles peuvent intervenir dans le débat. Ce livre, qui n'est pas un traité d'éthique sur l'homosexualité, entend seulement apporter quelques clarifications en montrant la portée de la Bible sur cette question.

Some of the roots of a negative attitude to homosexuality are found in Peter Damian’s appeal to Pope Leo IX. Written 900 years ago by an Italian monk, The Book of Gomorrah asks the Pope to take steps to halt the spread of homosexual practices among the clergy and is relevant to contemporary discussion of homosexuality. The Book of Gomorrah asks the Pope to take steps to halt the spread of homosexual practices among the clergy. The first part outlines the various forms of homosexual practice, the specific abuses, and the inadequacy of traditional penitential penances, and demands that offenders be removed form their ecclesiastical positions. The second part is an impassioned plea to the offenders to repent of their ways, accept due penance, and cease from homosexual activity. Payer’s is the first translation of the full tract into any language from the original Latin. In his introduction to the tract Payer places The Book of Gomorrah in its context as the first major systematic treatise in the medieval West against various homosexual acts, provides a critique of Peter Damian’s arguments, and outlines his life. The annotated translation is followed by a translation of the letter of Pope Leo IX in reply to Damian’s Treatise, an extensive bibliography, and indexes. The book will be of interest to students of medieval history and religion, to ethicists and students of social mores, and to persons generally concerned with the historical roots of present-day attitudes to homosexuality.
