Male Homosexuality in Children’s Literature, 1867-1918


Free Download Eric L. Tribunella, "Male Homosexuality in Children’s Literature, 1867-1918 "
English | ISBN: 1032441127 | 2023 | 214 pages | PDF | 8 MB
In his 1908 cultural and historical study of homosexuality titled The Intersexes: A History of Similisexualism as a Problem in Social Life, Edward Irenæus Prime-Stevenson includes a section on homosexual juvenile fiction, perhaps the first attempt to identify a body of children’s literature about male homosexuality in English. Known for pioneering the explicitly gay American novel for adults, Stevenson was also one of the first thinkers to take seriously the possibility and value of homosexual children, whom he called "young Uranians." This book takes as its starting point Stevenson’s catalog of homosexual boy books around the turn of the century and offers a critical examination of these works, along with others by gay writers who wrote for children from the mid-nineteenth century through the end of World War I. Stevenson’s list includes Eduard Bertz, Howard Sturgis, Horace Vachell, and Stevenson himself―to which Horatio Alger, John Gambril Nicholson, and E.F. Benson are added. Read alongside major developments in English- and German-language sexology, these boy books can be understood as participating in the construction and dissemination of the discourse of sexuality and as constituting the figure of the young Uranian as central to modern gay identity.

Free Download Atlas of Male Infertility Microsurgery
English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031316002 | 186 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 35 MB
Infertility affects approximately 15% of couples attempting to conceive, and male factor is known to be either the primary or a contributing factor in at least half of all cases of couple infertility. More than half of male infertility is amenable to microsurgical treatment, but a majority of urology residency programs provide little or no training in male infertility or its microsurgical treatment. Textbooks typically include a chapter or two on surgery of male infertility, but often these chapters only cover basic concepts and simplified overviews and miss the many finer points that are only taught by observing or scrubbing directly in the operating room. Utilizing Dr. Marc Goldstein’s extensive surgical experience, this atlas focuses primarily on microsurgical techniques for restoring and preserving male fertility. The chapters discuss surgical anatomy and diagnosis, microsurgery of the vas deferens and epididymis, varicocele and other fertility-related procedures. Topics and techniques include vasectomy, vasovasostomy, vasoepididymostomy, varicocelectomy, hydrocelectomy, and microsurgically assisted inguinal hernia repair. Equipment, instrumentation and training in microsurgery, including animal models, are also discussed. In each chapter, practical tips and tricks are highlighted. Enhanced by plentiful intraoperative photos and original illustrations, Atlas of Male Infertility Microsurgery is an essential resource for male reproductive surgeons, urologists, residents and fellows.
