reviewed The Boswell Thesis: Essays on Christianity, Social Tolerance, and Homosexuality on December 28, 2012 The Boswell Thesis: Essays on Christianity, Social Tolerance, and Homosexuality
I remember the first time I read Christianity, Social Tolerance, and Homosexuality back in the 1990s, how it opened my eyes in many senses, how it made me feel that it was possible to be gay and Catholic, how I realized that there were many ways to study to the past, how I thought that I could read literary & historic texts from new points of view... Since then, I have read all of Boswell's books: The Kindness of Strangers: The Abandonment of Children in Western Europe from Late Antiquity to the Renaissance, a major piece of scholarship; Same-Sex Unions in Premodern Europe, which was a major inspiration in the blessing ceremony I shared with my partner at a church before embarking in the adventure of living together in NY; and finally his doctoral dissertation: The Royal Treasure: Muslim Communities Under the Crown of Aragon in the Fourteenth Century, a wonderful array of sources, wit and historical research.
This collection of essays conveys the same spirit, the same quality, the same intellectual freedom and the same commitment to the humanities. It has been a real pleasure reading it.
