演講簡介
Early-to-mid twentieth century saw a proliferation of what I call “cross-gender homoerotic fiction.” The reception history of male homoerotic novels written by women during this period takes us through a fascinating tour of the rise and fall of identity politics in the Western world. Having been accused of inauthenticity and appropriation, and despite the efforts of queer reading, many of these texts remain in obscurity today. This talk brings in Boys’ Love—the postmodern East-Asian genre and subculture—as a theoretical intervention that provides an alternative framework for reading cross-gender homoerotic texts.
