Encyclopedia of Homosexuality

Volume II

About this book

First published in 1990, The Encyclopedia of Homosexuality brings together a collection of outstanding articles that were, at the time of this book's original publication, classic, pioneering, and recent. Together, the two volumes provide scholarship on male and female homosexuality and bisexuality, and, reaching beyond questions of physical sexuality, they examine the effects of homophilia and homophobia on literature, art, religion, science, law, philosophy, society, and history. Many of the writings were considered to be controversial, and often contradictory, at that time, and refer to issues and difficulties that still exist today.

This volume contains entries from M-Z.

Index

Boldfaced page numbers indicate an article on the topic.
An attempt has been made to include as many thematic entries as possible. Some of them, such as “research problems,” are designed to stimulate future scholarship; others, such as “homosexuality, mandatory,” seek to throw some light into little-known but interesting comers. For this reason, browsing through the Index may prove rewarding to a wide variety of users.
Titles of books, poems, short stories, plays, and films generally do not appear, but the names of their authors, directors, stars, and the like will be found. The most significant periodicals have been entered, but others omitted. Names in run-on series (e.g., Tom, Dick, and Harry) have been omitted. Scholars7 names have been entered if found in the text, but not from the bibliographies or article signatures. Page numbers flow together (e.g., 88–92) even across articles, and a single page number may cover references in more than one article on the same page. The extent of this Index and its inherent complexity have precluded absolute uniformity of criteria and standards for listing. Subheadings do not appear under entries; if some of the resulting long strings of page numbers seem formidable, at least they will reward patient researchers with aspects of the subject at hand which they might otherwise never have encountered.
