Anotácia knihy

Catholic Figures, Queer Narratives examines the relationship between Catholicism and homosexuality in a wide range of literary spaces. Why did so many homosexual Modernists embrace Catholicism? What is the role of Gothic anti-Catholicism in shaping modern definitions of both homosexual and Catholic identity? This timely new book interrogates the relationship between historical homophobia and the contemporary "crossroads" of the Church and homosexual. Authors discussed include Radclyffe Hall, James Joyce, Willa Cather, Djuna Barnes, and Evelyn Waugh, as well as many lesser-known figures. Not all were Catholic, nor were all homosexual - but all contributed to the queering discourses of devotion and desire. Moving from the Gothic to the late 20th century, from Britain to America and France, Catholic Figures, Queer Narratives provides encounters in what's queer about Catholicism and what's modern about homosexuality. The result is a radical re-vision of the sacred - in life and art, the body and faith.
