Masculinity and Queer Desire in Spanish Enlightenment LiteratureAshgate Publishing, Ltd., 28.05.2014 - 204 Seiten In his study of Spanish Enlightenment writings, Mehl Allan Penrose examines three male tropes: the effeminate and Francophile petimetre; the bujarrón, who engaged in sexual relations with other men; and the Arcadian shepherd, who expressed his desire for other males. Penrose analyzes the construction of “queerness” in these writings as a sign of the anxieties revolving around the supposed decline of masculinity and the evolving nature of sexuality in Spain. |
