Historians, anthropologists, and many contemporary Africans alike have denied or overlooked African same-sex patterns or claimed that such patterns were introduced by Europeans. Among African Americans questions surrounding sexuality and gender in traditional African societies have become especially contentious. In fact, same-sex love was and is widespread in Africa. Boy-Wives and Female Husbands documents same-sex patterns in some fifty societies, in every region of the continent. Essays by scholars from a variety of disciplines explore institutionalized marriages between women, same-sex relations between men and boys in colonial work settings, mixed gender roles in East and West Africa, and recent developments in South Africa, where lesbians and gays successfully made that nation the first in the world to constitutionally ban discrimination based on sexual orientation.

Dans la France de la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, le Juif et l'homosexuel sont les figures réprouvées d'une époque marquée par une crise de l'identité masculine. La défaite contre la Prusse a été vécue comme un drame national, une preuve de l'affaiblissement de la France et de la dégénérescence de la "race". Les coupables sont vite désignés : "l'invasion juive" et la dépravation des moeurs. Très rapidement et de manière massive, le théâtre puis le cinéma se font l'écho de cet antisémitisme et de cette homophobie. Ils mettent en scène des Juifs et des homosexuels présentés sous des dehors à la fois grotesques et répulsifs, en un jeu de correspondances qui éclaire puissamment les hantises liées à la sexualité, à la peur du mélange et au rejet de l'altérité. De Renoir à Pagnol, de Sarah Bernhard à Sacha Guitry, des Goncourt à Gide, cette traversée du monde du spectacle est une véritable plongée au coeur de la société française de la fin du XIXe à la Seconde Guerre mondiale, qui fait de l'homme blanc, bourgeois, catholique et hétérosexuel, le pilier de la nation

"Writing Prejudices addresses critical attempts to undermine prejudice through education in general, and literary studies in particular. Robert Samuels argues that these attempts often fail because they do not take into account the different forms of prejudice, the role played by homophobia in racism and sexism, the structure of what Lacan calls symbolic castration, and the unconscious foundations of cultural formations. Addressing these deficiencies, Samuels uses psychoanalytic theory to examine the manifestations of racism, sexism, ethnocentrism, and homophobia in the works of Shakespeare, Mary Shelley, Joseph Conard, and Toni Morrison, showing how these distinct modes of oppression feed off of each other and the diverse ways that cultural critics can work to undermine them."--Jacket.
