Boswell reveals unexplored phenomena with an unfailing erudition.” -Michel Foucault This landmark book helped form the disciplines of gay and gender studies, and it continues to illuminate the origins and operations of intolerance as a social force. Jordan, Christianity, Social Tolerance, and Homosexuality is still fiercely relevant. Now in this thirty-fifth anniversary edition with a new foreword by leading queer and religious studies scholar Mark D. The historical breadth of Boswell’s research (from the Greeks to Aquinas) and the variety of sources consulted make this one of the most extensive treatments of any single aspect of Western social history. John Boswell’s National Book Award–winning study of the history of attitudes toward homosexuality in the early Christian West was a groundbreaking work that challenged preconceptions about the Church’s past relationship to its gay members-among them priests, bishops, and even saints-when it was first published thirty-five years ago.

![]() ![]() New characters such as Matron and Corporal Fickits were fun additions, but this serves as a good bridge to later books and little else. 'Return of the Indian' is nowhere near as well thought-out or sensitive as the first one. Deadly consequences are addressed head-on with several events, but the book ends on a hopeful note with new life and Omri and Patrick finally (maybe) learning caution.īanks is a good writer, but I think she gave in too easily to fan pressure to produce a sequel. It comes off to me as a bit of a backpedal when Omri agrees to help Little Bear with a battle against the Algonquins. ![]() This book is more about Omri and Patrick continuing to learn about the awesome responsibility the cupboard's magic gives them.

Picking up a year after the events of the first book, 'The Return of the Indian' lacks a lot of the power and insight of the 'The Indian in the Cupboard'. ![]() |
