Exploring and explaining the most important ideas and events in LGBTQ+ history and culture, this book showcases the breadth of the LGBTQ+ experience. This diverse, global account explores the most important moments, movements, and phenomena, from the first known lesbian love poetry of Sappho to Kinsey’s modern sexuality studies, and features biographies of key figures from Anne Lister to Audre Lorde.
Dive deep into the pages of The LGBTQ + History book to discover:
- Thought-provoking graphics and flow charts demystify the central concepts behind key moments in LGBTQ+ history, from eromenos and erastes in the Ancient World to political lesbianism.
- Features insightful quotes from leading historians, philosophers, cultural commentators, economists, anthropologists, sociologists, activists, and politicians.
- Includes biography boxes and directory entries on the lives of important but lesser-known individuals, alongside well-known names including Sappho, Oscar Wilde, Anne Lister, Harvey Milk, and Marsha P. Johnson.
- Global in scope with a localizable directory.
The LGBTQ+ History Book celebrates the victories and untold triumphs of LGBTQ+ people throughout history, such as the Stonewall Riots and first gender affirmation surgeries, as well as commemorating moments of tragedy and persecution, from the Renaissance Italian "Night Police" to the 20th century "Don’t Ask Don’t Tell" policy. The book also includes major cultural cornerstones – the secret language of polari, Black and Latine ballroom culture, and the many flags of the community – and the history of LGBTQ+ spaces, from 18th-century "molly houses" to modern "gaybourhoods".
The LGBTQ+ History Book celebrates the long, proud – and often hidden – history of LGBTQ+ people, cultures, and places from around the world.

Buch (Gebundene Ausgabe)
everything but not too much
This book is an ideal starting point or summary for anyone who wants to know more and understand topics concerning LGBT+ people. Any facette of the community, of its history, worldwide, is well explained and put into context. Whoever wants to do plenty of research about it will find this book to be an excellent overview to start on, maybe to find ideas what else to research. Whoever wants just a basic understanding on the subject, can read this book and won't need much else afterwards. History lovers and people not overly interested in history alike will find this very interesting. The amount of knowledge in it is all compassing, yet it is not overwhelming. Not to mention how visually pleasing it is made to be on every page.
