The first detailed treatment of the Chinese homosexual tradition in any Western language, Passions of the Cut Sleeve shatters preconceptions and stereotypes. Gone is the image of the sternly puritanical Confucian as sole representative of Chinese sexual practicesand with it the justification for the modern Chinese insistence that homosexuality is a recent import from the decadent West. Rediscovering the male homosexual tradition in China provides a startling new perspective on Chinese society and adds richly to our understanding of homosexuality. Bret Hinsch's reconstruction of the Chinese homosexual past reveals unexpected scenes. An emperor on his deathbed turns over the seals of the empire to a male beloved; two men marry each other with elaborate wedding rituals; parents sell their son into prostitution. The tradition portrays men from all levels of societyemperors, transvestite actors, rapists, elegant scholars, licentious monks, and even the nameless poor. Drawing from dynastic histories, erotic novels, popular Buddhist tracts, love poetry, legal cases, and joke books, Passions of the Cut Sleeve evokes the complex and fascinating male homosexual tradition in China from the Bronze Age until its decline in recent times.

sewn PAPERBACK, very good lightly used copy, light wear to covers and corners. LANGMUIR, GAVIN I. History, religion, and antisemitism. Berkeley: University of California Press, 1990, 1st printing number line starting with 1, ix, 380pp., . Discusses the essence of religion (as a social phenomenon) and religiosity (a property of individuals) from the perspective of a historian, as a preliminary theoretical clarification in order to approach the problem of antisemitism and to provide a comprehensive rational answer to the question: "Why did non-Jews from the Middle Ages to the present kill millions of almost defenseless Jews?" Using his own definition of antisemitism (see his "Toward a Definition of Antisemitism", 1990), considers the extreme irrationality of antisemitism as its essential feature which distinguishes it from other kinds of hostility toward Jews. Places the origins of antisemitism in medieval Christian Europe when irrational Christian anti-Jewish stereotypes and myths gained social significance and were incorporated into European culture and historiography. Distinguishes a "physiocentric antisemitism" in the 19th century, promoted by socialistic or racial theories, culminating with Nazi antisemitism and the Final Solution. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism). 9780520077287 ISBN 0520077288.
