Ritualized Homosexuality in MelanesiaGilbert H. Herdt University of California Press, 28.01.1993 - 409 Seiten This book contains the work of seven leading anthropologists on the subject of ritualized homosexuality, and it marks the first time that anthropologists have systematically studied cross-cultural variations in homosexual behavior in a non-Western culture area. The book as a whole indicates that contemporary theories of sex and gender development need revision in light of the Melanesian findings. |
