Böcker av Clayton J. Whisnant

Germany in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries witnessed key developments in LGBT history, including the world's first homosexual organizations and gay and lesbian magazines, as well as an influential community of sexologists and psychoanalysts. Clayton J. Whisnant recounts events from vibrant gay social scenes to Nazi persecution.

Whisnant argues that the period after Nazism was more important for the history of homosexuality in Germany than is generally recognized. Gay scenes resurfaced; a more masculine view of homosexuality also became prominent. Above all, a public debate about homosexuality emerged, constituting a critical debate within the Sexual Revolution.
