Since the late nineteenth century, increasing numbers of people have self-assuredly championed the recognition of queer lifestyles. These pioneers formed collectives, made their voices heard, and questioned dominant gender categories politically, scientifically, and artistically. Through essays, interviews, and artworks, the authors and artists illustrate this struggle for recognition which was forcefully prevented and destroyed following the seizure of power by the National Socialists and almost forgotten after 1945.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hirmer Verlag GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/22\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783777439921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252","brand":"Mirjam Zadoff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42607933358261,"sku":"9783777439921","price":25.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_5331f87f-f0d8-4f6d-8062-22edab1e9b06.jpg?v=1674574485","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/to-be-seen-queer-lives-1900-1950-9783777439921","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
