Is it possible to establish a temporal continuity in the way homoeroticism (and homosociability) among women was experienced and perceived? Are the categories of sexual orientation and erotic identity valid and universal for its historical understanding? Lesbohistory has deeply explored and enriched these topics and debates, pointing out the anachronisms and distortions involved in postulating an inherent homosexual identity to the human condition and a transhistorical “lesbian personality.” From this same perspective, this book offers a comprehensive synthesis of female homosexuality in the West, beginning in Greco-Roman antiquity, continuing through the medieval, modern, and contemporary periods, and concluding in the present. Its purpose, through diverse sources, practices, representations, discourses, and testimonies, is to account for both historical continuities and similarities—starting with the rejection and invisibility of female homoerotic relationships, as they displaced male power or challenged the patriarchal order—as well as historical differences—also in relation to male homosexuality—constituting a valuable contribution to the still scarce studies dedicated to lesbohistory in the Spanish-speaking world to date.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Los Libros de la Catarata","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57188937204056,"sku":"9788413528359","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/9788413528359.jpg?v=1777241116"},{"product_id":"historia-de-la-homosexualidad-masculina-en-occidente-906-mayor","title":"Historia de la homosexualidad masculina en Occidente: 906 (Mayor)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is no single, universal history of homosexuality. This history has been constructed from an \"integrationist\" approach, which follows the developments of homosexuality by placing them within the major processes of social and political history, balancing the analysis of practices, representations, and discourses, intertwining multiple sources, and alternating geographical and historical-ethnographic explorations with the history of concepts (theological-moral, philosophical, scientific) and images (visual arts, literature, advertising). The history of male homosexuality in the West has been organized around three main axes. First, the study of control and persecution practices deployed by various social institutions and historical periods. Second, the forms of resistance aimed at creating livable spaces, a community of their own, and eventually a subculture or a movement of contestation in each era. Finally, it also seeks to capture the forms of identity and subjectivity shaped in this agonizing relationship between the exercise of power and the challenges of individual freedom. The result is an ambitious work from which the most strictly academic edges have been smoothed, seeking the accessible language necessary for greater understanding.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Los Libros de la Catarata","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57188947460440,"sku":"9788413525464","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8464\/0856\/files\/9788413525464.jpg?v=1777241253"},{"product_id":"historia-de-la-homosexualidad-masculina-en-espana-1029-mayor","title":"Historia de la homosexualidad masculina en España: 1029 (Mayor)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe book you have in your hands would not have been possible in another era of Spain's history.
