Описание: Queer Cities, Queer Culturesexamines the formation and make-up of urban subcultures and situates them against the stories we typically tell about Europe and its watershed moments in the post 1945 period. The book considers the degree to which the iconic events of 1945, 1968 and 1989 influenced the social and sexual climate of the ensuing decades, raising questions about the form and structure of the 1960s sexual revolution, and forcing us to think about how we define sexual liberalization - and where, how and on whose terms it occurs.
An international team of authors explores the role of America in shaping particular forms of subculture; the significance of changes in legal codes; differing modes of queer consumption and displays of community; the difficult fit of queer (as opposed to gay and lesbian) politics in liberal democracies; the importance of mobility and immigration in modulating queer urban life; the challenge of AIDS; and the arrival of the internet.
By exploring the queer histories of cities from Istanbul to Helsinki and Moscow to Madrid, Queer Cities, Queer Culturesmakes a significant contribution to our understanding of urban history, European history and the history of gender and sexuality.

The kingdom of Aldronan has flourished under King Tovar's rule. But that rule comes to an abrupt halt when Tovar disappears without a trace, leaving the throne to his warlike brother, Zadrac of Shadar.
In a small village down south, a young hunter named Egzodus discovers Tovar to be alive but in grave danger, his soul preserved within an enchanted gemstone. Accompanied by a band of loyalists to the true king, Egzodus resolves to protect his homeland by unraveling the mystery of this spell. Among his companions are a skilled swordsman, an archer, a dwarf, a dark-haired beauty from the mountains, and a frail wizard . . . all of whom help Egzodus discover a special gift he inherited at birth.
Zadrac's power grows as his Demonhide forces march onward, making the journey through Aldronan ever more treacherous. Soon the team must split up and form brave new alliances to stay alive. What's worse, there may be a traitor among them.
Through his hunt for the king, Egzodus must learn to tame dangerous beasts, harness ancient magic, and discover love in his heart before Zadrac shatters his homeland forever.
