Germany in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries witnessed key developments
in LGBT history, including the growth of the world's first homosexual organizations
and gay and lesbian magazines, as well as an influential community of German sexologists
and psychoanalysts. Queer Identities and Politics in Germany describes these events
in detail, from vibrant gay social scenes to the Nazi persecution that sent many LGBT
people to concentration camps. Clayton J. Whisnant recounts the emergence of various
queer identities in Germany from 1880 to 1945 and the political strategies pursued
by early homosexual activists. Drawing on recent English and German-language scholarship,
he enriches the debate over whether science contributed to social progress or persecution
during this period, and he offers new information on the Nazis' preoccupation with
homosexuality. The book's epilogue locates remnants of the pre-1945 era in Germany
today
