The Crimson Letter: Harvard, Homosexuality, and the Shaping of American Culture Book

What kind of gay culture has developed at Harvard? Given that it involves the country's most prestigious educational institution-its graduates comprise a veritable 'Who's Who' in American life and letters-the question has far more than academic relevance. Historian Douglass Shand-Tucci, himself a Harvard graduate, begins by positing the two dominant nineteenth-century gay archetypes-and then explores how their dramatic and creative oppositions and tensions shaped the gay experience at Harvard, and by extension, the country as a whole, from the 1800s to the present. The Crimson Letter combines the learned and the lurid, tragedy and farce, scandal and vindication, to provide a fascinating account of sex-uality and identity at America's most storied seat of learning.Read More
