Homosexualities in digital media: intersections between gender and genre by Daniel Mazzaro, Venan Alencar

“…Studies on digital media as spaces where dissident desires are socialized have been conducted as important instruments in terms of understanding possible modes of gay male subjectivities in virtual environments, especially when such subjectivities are textualized. When it comes to gay men, which is the case, building a sense for gender issues involves some other intricacies, and it requires an analysis on how masculinities and femininities, for example, have been being approached by these speaking subjects. …”

Fame, glory and rumour. Vladislaus of Varna as king of Hungary by Stanisław A. Sroka

“…Another issue which has recently been hotly debated is the issue of the King’s alleged homosexuality, which even led to regarding him as an informal patron of gay men in Central Europe. Proponents base their theory on the chronicle of Jan Dlugosz, who rather had in mind sexual promiscuity of the ruler; therefore, the chronicler’s statement that the king was in marium libidinem proclivus should probably be understood in such a way. …”

Camp Cures (the Stigma of Illness). Escaping the Tyranny of Caring, Charity, and Positive Thinking in Adam Mars-Jones' "Slim" by Christian Lassen

“…Entering the present discourse of HIV and AIDS at this point, one can hardly fail to notice that it is this very stigma that increasingly forces gay men into normative spectacles of health, even though, as Dollimore accurately contends, "contesting these negative representations (homosexuality = pathology = death) could never be just a question of substituting positive ones (homosexuality = health = life)" (Dollimore, Death, Desire and Loss xi). …”

Is Class an Identity? by Richard Ohmann

“…  The students make their way through the world with sensitive compasses and gyroscopes that tell them also which neighborhoods in Brooklyn are homelike to them and which parts of Boston; which places have nothing to do with their lives (e.g., Staten Island and Paterson); where are the places to go after college (New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Boston, Washington); where they might spend summers; what styles and fashions signify; how to speak in what Basil Bernstein called the "elaborated code" of the middle class;  how to place those who don't; how to avoid alienated labor by deploying credentials or creativity; and-- yes--whom to marry, should it come to such a pass. [...]most people don't so readily identify themselves by class as by gender or race, and perhaps don't even feel being working class or PMC the way they feel being white or male or straight or, especially, being Latino or black or female or gay--except of course when they are way out of their usual class habitat: a mechanic plunked down in the Century Club, say, or an English Professor at the Elks. [...]even such misadventures are not likely to endanger the displaced person, the way women and African Americans and gay men and others risk insult or violence in many venues. …”
