Description of Courtly Desire and Medieval Homophobia
This study of "Cleanness" and its medieval contexts shows how the 14th century religious poem legitimates erotic pleasures as natural from procreative justification. It explains how the poem sacrilized heterosexual erotic play while condemning male homosexual love as profane.
