Virtual Intimacies
Virtual Intimacies tells the stories of gay men, including
the author, who navigate social worlds in which the boundaries
between real and virtual have been thoroughly confounded. Shaka
McGlotten analyzes intimate connection and disconnection across an
array of media sites, including mass mediated public sex scandals,
online spaces, Do-It-Yourself porn, and smartphone apps in order to
show the ordinary ways people challenge and rework sexuality and
technology. The book frames \"virtual intimacy\" in terms of the
mocking disapproval that looks at using technology to connect as
something shameful or as a means of last resort. However, where
many see a dead end, Virtual Intimacies argues on behalf
of more extensive understandings of intimacy, thereby contributing
to many feminist and queer approaches that seek to expand the scope
of what counts as connection, belonging, or love. The author also
highlights the creative and resilient ways that queer people build
social worlds using spaces and technologies in ways they were not
intended.

The bishop's bedroom
\"Summer 1946. World War Two has just come to an end and there's a yearning for renewal. A man in his thirties is sailing on Lake Maggiore in northern Italy, hoping to put off the inevitable return to work. Dropping anchor in a small, fashionable port, he meets the enigmatic owner of a nearby villa who invites him home for dinner with his older wife and beautiful widowed sister-in-law. The sailor is intrigued by the elegant waterside mansion, staffed with servants and imbued with mystery, and stays in a guest room previously occupied by a now deceased bishop related to his host. The two men form an uneasy bond, recognizing in each other a shared taste for idling and erotic adventure. They soon set sail together, encountering old flames and making new conquests. But tragedy puts an abrupt halt to their revels and shatters the tranquility of the villa. What really happened on the dock? And who was the figure glimpsed cycling around the shore in the dark?\"--Provided by publisher.

Sex and Drugs before Rock 'n' Roll
Sex and Drugs Before Rock ’n’ Roll is a fascinating volume that presents an engaging overview of what it was like to be young and male in the Dutch Golden Age. Here, well-known cohorts of Rembrandt are examined for the ways in which they expressed themselves by defying conservative values and norms. This study reveals how these young men rebelled, breaking from previous generations: letting their hair grow long, wearing colorful clothing, drinking excessively, challenging city guards, being promiscuous, smoking, and singing lewd songs. Cogently argued, this study paints a compelling portrait of the youth culture of the Dutch Golden Age, at a time when the rising popularity of print made dissemination of new cultural ideas possible, while rising incomes and liberal attitudes created a generation of men behaving badly.
Dit boek richt zich op één generatie van jonge mannen die werd geboren rond 1600 en volwassen werd tijdens het hoogtepunt van de Gouden Eeuw. Van bekende generatiegenoten, zoals Rembrandt van Rijn, wordt onderzocht hoe ze uiting gaven aan hun jongerencultuur en mannelijkheid. Roberts onderzoekt de mannelijkheid van deze jonge mannen op het gebied van uiterlijk, drinken, drugs, het gebruik van geweld, hun seksualiteit en hun manier van vrijetijdsinvulling. Hij laat zien hoe zij zich afzetten tegen de vorige generatie onder andere door hun lang haren, kleurrijke kleding, promiscuiteit en overmatig drankgebruik.

These men had more money to spend on clothes, music, and recreation than the generation before them.
