Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gold mine of information about a hidden queer culture Thirty-two years before Simone de Beauvoir's classic The Second Sex, popular French novelist Willy published The Third Sex, a vivid description of the world of European homosexuals in France, Italy, and Germany during the late 1920s. Stepping directly into the heart of gay men's culture, Willy follows homosexual nightlife into music halls, nightclubs, casinos, bars, and saunas. While he finds plenty of drug and alcohol abuse, he also discovers homosexual publishers, scientific societies, group rivalries, and opinions--both medical and political--about the nature of homosexuality itself. Lawrence R. Schehr's introduction provides context and translator's notes for this first-ever English edition.

Book Synopsis The Amazing Emperor Heliogabalus by : John Stuart Hay
Download or read book The Amazing Emperor Heliogabalus written by John Stuart Hay and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-06-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life of Emperor Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, generally known to the world as Heliogabalus, is as yet shrouded in impenetrable mystery. The picture we have of the reign is that of an imperial orgy—sacrilegious, necromantic, and obscene. The boy Emperor, who reigned from his fourteenth to his eighteenth year, is depicted amongst that crowd of tyrants who held the throne of Imperial Rome, with the help of the praetorian army, as one of the most tyrannical, certainly as the most debased. The present writer started this study with the view that the Syrian boy-Emperor was, in all probability, what his biographers have painted him, and what all other writers have accepted as being a substantially correct account of the absence of mind, will, policy, and authority which he was supposed to have betrayed, along with other even more reprehensible characteristics.

Book Synopsis Gladiator: Orgy Of Death by : Stephen Barber
Download or read book Gladiator: Orgy Of Death written by Stephen Barber and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2011-10-03 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gladiatorial combat formed the seminal experience and spectacle of the Roman Empire, its regime of all-out bloodshed, mutilation and decapitation allowed the Empire to flourish with ever-more innovative slaughterhouse-spectacles designed to propel their audiences' corporeal and sensory experiences beyond all boundaries. Those combats exacted extreme ritualistic discipline and subservience from both fighters and audiences, so that the arenas in which combat took place formed worlds apart in which all desires, including sexual obsessions, could be instantaneously gratified. With the collapse of the Roman Empire, that gladiatorial world instantly disintegrated, but it remains a compelling contemporary preoccupation, manifested in such films as Gladiator and Spartacus: Blood and Sand, through the vast ruins of its arenas and the aura of sheer sensorial ferocity which that culture generated. Taken from Stephen Barber's ground-breaking study "Caligula: Divine Carnage", this definitive and original summation of gladitorial spectacle is the result of many years of exhaustive on-site research, across Europe, as well as into the Roman Empire's iconographical and archival records. It offers a visceral, unprecedented experience of the culture of the Gladiator. This special ebook edition includes bonus material in the form of a history of the gladiator revolution led by Spartacus, Crixus and Oenomaus in 73BC.

Book Synopsis Decadent Culture in the United States by : David Weir
Download or read book Decadent Culture in the United States written by David Weir and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decadent Culture in the United States traces the development of the decadent movement in America from its beginnings in the 1890s to its brief revival in the 1920s. During the fin de siècle, many Americans felt the nation had entered a period of decline since the frontier had ended and the country's "manifest destiny" seemed to be fulfilled. Decadence—the cultural response to national decline and individual degeneracy so familiar in nineteenth-century Europe—was thus taken up by groups of artists and writers in major American cities such as New York, Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco. Noting that the capitalist, commercial context of America provided possibilities for the entrance of decadence into popular culture to a degree that simply did not occur in Europe, David Weir argues that American-style decadence was driven by a dual impulse: away from popular culture for ideological reasons, yet toward popular culture for economic reasons. By going against the grain of dominant social and cultural trends, American writers produced a native variant of Continental Decadence that eventually dissipated "upward" into the rising leisure class and "downward" into popular, commercial culture.
