About Sodomy, Masculinity and Law in Medieval Literature

This book offers a historical survey of attitudes towards same-sex love during the centuries that gave us the Plantagenet court of Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine, courtly love, and Arthurian lore. Though most texts of the period denounce sodomy, this book shows how some also endorse it.
