This book queers Europe and Europeanizes queer, forcing a reconsideration of both. Its contributors study Europe relationally, asking not so much what Europe is but what we do when we attempt to define it. The topics discussed include: gay marriage in Renaissance Rome, Russian anarchism and gender politics in early-twentieth-century Switzerland, colonialism and sexuality in Italy, queer masculinities in European popular culture, queer national identities in French cinema, and gender theories and activism. What these apparently disparate topics have in common is the urgency of the political, legal, and cultural issues they tackle. Asking what is queer about Europe means probing the blind spots that continue to structure the long and discrepant process of Europeanization"-- $c Provided by publisher. 520 $a "What's Queer about Europe focuses on those queer types of artistic, political or theoretical exchanges that take place in the presence of the idea of Europe. This book is not about queer communities in Europe but about how Queer Theory helps us initiate counter-intuitive encounters for imagining Europe"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 8 $a Machine generated contents note: -- Introduction: Queer and Europe: An Encounter -- Sudeep Dasgupta and Mireille Rosello -- Queer Histories: Imagining Other European Constructions -- (Same-Sex) Marriage and the Making of Europe: Renaissance Rome Revisited -- Gary Ferguson -- A Case of Mistaken Identity: Female Russian Social-Revolutionaries in Early-Twentieth-Century Switzerland -- Dominique Grisard -- Straight Migrants Queering European Man -- Nacira GueÌnif -- Queering Euro-Global Politics -- Queering European Sexualities Through Italy's Fascist Past: Colonialism, Homosexuality, and Masculinities -- Sandra Ponzanesi -- Queer, Republican France, and Its Euro-American "Others" -- Lucille Cairns -- From European Grand Narratives to Queer Counter-Stories -- Sick Man of Transl-Asia: Bruce Lee and Queer Cultural Translation -- Paul Bowman -- What's Queer about Remy, Ratatouille, and French Cuisine? -- Laure Murat -- Pathos as Queer Sociality in Contemporary European Visual Culture: François Ozon's Time to Leave -- Emma Wilson -- Queer/Euro Visions -- Carl Stychin -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index. 650 0 $a Queer theory $z Europe. 651 0 $a Europe $x Civilization. 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / Gay & Lesbian. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM / European / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Civilization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862898 650 7 $a Queer theory. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01739572 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 700 1 $a Rosello, Mireille. 700 1 $a Dasgupta, Sudeep. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217031756.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826090830.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F4F14A0ED4E311E3810EC6B1DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
