Beschreibungen
Queer spaces are crucial for the construction of LGBTQ+ communities, as they constitute places where queer subjects can create political, social, and affective alliances. Júlia Braga Neves shows how these spaces are pivotal for the representation of queer history in the fictional works by the British authors Sarah Waters and Alan Hollinghurst, whose characters and plots are articulated through and within London's sexual geographies. Considering the intersection between gender, sexuality, and class, this study engages with spatial, queer, feminist, and Marxist theories as a means to reflect on London, queer historiography, and the relationship between subject and urban space.
Júlia Braga Neves is a professor of English literature at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She completed her PhD in English Literature and Culture at Humboldt University in Berlin and King's College London and pursues research involving Gender and Queer Studies, London, literature and historiography, and Contemporary English literature.
