Reseña del libro "LGBT Victorians. Sexuality and Gender in the Nineteenth-Century Archives"
LGBT Victorians explores Victorian thought around gender and sexual identity to examine how Victorians considered these identity categories to have produced and shaped each other, highlighting a range of individuals including Anne Lister, the defendants in the 1870s "Fanny and Stella" trial, Karl-Heinrich Ulrichs, and John Addington Symonds.
LGBT Victorians argues for re-visiting the Victorian era''s thinking about gender and sexual identity. We think of those whose primary self-definition is in terms of sexuality (lesbians, gay men, bisexuals) and those for whom it is gender identity (intersex and transgender people, genderqueers) as simultaneously in coalition and distinct from each other. Re-examining how the Victorians considered such identity categories to have produced and shaped each other can ground a more durable basis for strengthening our present LGBTQ+ coalition.LGBT Victorians reconsiders the significance of sexology and efforts to retrospectively discover transgender people in historical archives, particularly in the gap between what the nineteenth century termed the sodomite and the hermaphrodite. It highlights a broad range of individuals (including Anne Lister, and the defendants in the "Fanny and Stella" trial of the 1870s), key thinkers and activists (including Karl-Heinrich Ulrichs and Edward Carpenter), and writers such as Walt Whitman and John Addington Symonds to map the complicated landscape of gender and sexuality in the Victorian period.
