Description
The Culture of Queers by Richard Dyer offers a groundbreaking examination of queer culture across a century leading up to the Stonewall riots, tracing how the term 'queers' defined gay men before the emergence of modern gay culture. Dyer explores the fundamental question of what it means for a sexual grouping to possess a distinct culture, investigating attitudes towards women, the phenomenon of camp, and representations ranging from screaming queens to sensitive vampires and melancholic young men. The book draws on diverse cultural artefacts including pulp novels, pornography, and the influential films of Rainer Werner Fassbinder to construct a nuanced history of queer identity and expression. This Routledge publication provides essential reading for understanding the cultural continuities and ruptures between historical queer identity and contemporary gay culture, making it invaluable for students of film, cultural studies, LGBTQ+ history, and gender studies.
