The study of homosexuality can be said to have begun in 1869, when a generation of medical doctors established the profession of sexology, the medical and supposedly scientific study of sex.
The Encyclopedia of Lesbian and Gay Histories and Cultures in two volumes is the latest, and we hope the richest, in a long line of publications that attempt to open up for contemporary readers the complex history and wide cultural diversity of lesbian and gay life.
Unlike earlier endeavors, however, which tended to limit the
kinds of questions that could be asked about the past, these volumes try to avoid the stigma conventionally attached to “homosexuality” and look instead at examples of same-sex desire in different cultures at different times.
