Gay historiography

Thank you for bringing up this subject! I would appreciate a ping into any other conversations you start on the subject, or a heads up if you create a draft. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 17:12, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

@Firefangledfeathers: Thanks for your interest! I'm still in the source gathering mode, though I think I'm getting near the end of the first wave. I found a real historian, Rictor Norton, who is totally on the same page as me about so many things and his website is my new happy place, so I'm going to be reaching out to him shortly for some general pointers and if he can recommend some newer sources than what's generally available on Open Library/Internet Archive. The one blank I still have on my list of sub-topics to cover is some kind of formalized criticism of how mainstream historians approach queer topics, but I also haven't really looked for any yet. I got sidelined by all the internal bickering between Social Constructionists and Essentialists :P

I've been dumping sources and vaguely outlining both the cultural history and historiography topics on User:Lexid523/Queer_historiography_project, so if you happen to come across something you think will help, feel free to also dump it on there! Lexid523 (talk) 19:53, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

Will do! Thanks, Firefangledfeathers (talk) 20:09, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
