From the Dust Jacket: "In this extraordinary study Allen J. Frantzen challenges this long accepted view [that the early Middle Ages tolerated and even fostered same-sex relations and that intolerance of homosexuality developed only late in the medieval period], showing that the early medieval Church did not tolerate same-sex acts, and, furthermore, that men and women who preferred homosexual relations pursued their desies in spite of official sanctions. The early medieval period was, Frantzen argues, an age before people recognized the existence -- or the possibility -- of the 'closet.' With its ambitious scope and elegant style, BEFORE THE CLOSET sets same-sex relations in Anglo-Saxon sources in relation to the sexual themes of contemporary opera, dance, and theatre... [Frantzen] offers a comprehensive analysis of sources from the seventh to the twelfth century and traces Anglo-Saxon same-sex behavior through the age of Chaucer and into the Renaissance." .
