• Summary

  The Queer Tree of Life maps the landscape of queer LGBTQ publishing between 1880 and 2019 in an inter­national context. Over 400 examples document the wealth of ideas in print of a culture that was clandestine until the 1970s. The selected examples focus on identity and image constructions of queer lifestyles. Fanzines, self-publishing, academic discourse, research, porn, and artist’s books are presented as pioneers of a non-heteronormative self-understanding.
  Edition Note: Ed. of 500
