In The Culture of Queers, Richard Dyer traces the contours of queer culture, examining the differences and continuities with the gay culture which succeeded it. Opening with a discussion of the very concept of 'queers', Dyer asks what it means to speak of a sexual grouping having a culture, and addresses issues such as gay attitudes to women and the notion of camp. From screaming queens to sensitive vampires and sad young men, and from pulp novels to pornography to the films of Fassbinder, The Culture of Queers explores the history of queer arts and media.--Provided by publisher.Gay people in popular cultureHomosexuality in motion picturesHomosexuality in artHomosexualityPublic opinionGay menAttitudesGay people in popular culture.Homosexuality in motion pictures.Homosexuality in art.HomosexualityPublic opinion.Gay menAttitudes.306.766791.43086642Dyer Richard1945,1554176MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777372003321The culture of queers3815256UNINA
