商品簡介
Using the term queer to convey dissonance generally as well as deviation from a sexual norm, scholars of Western literature and religion during various historical periods explore violations of boundaries between conventional categories. Their topics include the erotic adventures of rabbi Meir, the Queen Anne churches as queer spaces, queering the Jews in Protestant Europe at the fin de siecle, A Russian-Jewish-Catholic homosexual in Oscar Wilde's London, questions of morality and identity regarding Hitler's Jewish solders, and Judaic recovery and the broken Christian body in Michael Arditti's Easter and The Celibate.
