Gay and lesbian historical fictionsexual mystery and post-secular narrative /[electronic resource] :Norman W. Jones. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2007. - xii, 218 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [187]-210) and index.

Can We Talk? -- Spot the Homo: Definitions -- Revisionist Histories from Mysterious Hauntings-- Coming-Out Stories as Conversion Narratives -- Chosen Communities: Familiar Stories from StrangeBedfellows -- Romancing the Past: The Uses of Identification.

The first extensive study of gay and lesbian historical fiction, this book demonstrates how the highly popular genre helps us understand gay and lesbian history. It shows not only why the genreshould be taken more seriously by historians but also how it implicitly works to ameliorate divisions between Christianity and homosexuality. The book contends that gay and lesbian historical fictionsmodel ways of approaching sexual and historical mystery not as a threat to understanding but as itsground. These fictions thus implicitly undermine the supposed dichotomy between secular and sacred ways of knowing, thereby expanding the resources for ethical debate about homosexuality.
