The essays in this volume boldly map the historically resonant intersectionsbetween Jewishness and queerness between homophobia and antiSemitism andbetween queer theory and theorizations of Jewishness. With important essays bysuch wellknown figures in queer and gender studies as Judith Butler DanielBoyarin Marjorie Garber Michael Moon and Eve Sedgwick this book is not somuch interested in revealing outing queer Jews as it is in exploringthe complex social arrangements and processes through which modern Jewish andhomosexual identities emerged as traces of each other during the last twohundred years. «
