Before the Closet by Allen J Frantzen
Examining the intolerance of homosexuality in the early medieval period, this study challenges the long-held belief that the early Middle Ages tolerated same-sex relations. The work focuses on Anglo-Saxon literature but also includes examinations of contemporary opera, dance and theatre.
Allen J. Frantzen is Professor of English at Loyola University of Chicago. His book The Literature of Penance in Anglo-Saxon England (Rutgers University Press, 1983) shared the John Nicholas Brown Prize of the Medieval Academy of America.
