Apercevoir l’amour entre personnes de même genre au Moyen Âge

Abstract

The question of the homoeroticism of medieval images arises problems inasmuch as the images are mostly produced within the framework of ecclesial institution, which ideologically condemns sexuality between people of the same gender. The iconographic tracks, and the methods of analysis of contextual images allow us to put into perspective series, from the question of the nude to anality. This review of Robert Mills' book proposes a critical and prospective synthesis of recent publications in this field.
