This course will examine LGBTQ persons, issues, and events in Europe, focusing mostly on 1850 to now. We will cover the history of anti-sodomy laws; the evolution of cultural and scientific understandings of sex, sexuality, and gender, including ideas of trans-ness; and the history of LGBTQ activism. We will focus in particular on Germany and the UK, but other countries will enter our examination as well.
