  • Forbidden Desire in Early Modern Europe

    Mario DigangiARTICLEThe Journal of Interdisciplinary…2025

    Malcolm’s Forbidden Desire in Early Modern Europe is somewhat misleadingly titled, since it persuasively demonstrates that male-male sex in early modern Europe was quite commonplace and often went unpunished. Across early modern Europe, masters generally expected male servants to be sexually submissive, and the pervasive practice of bed-sharing provided opportunities for sexual intimacy (67, 71). Sex with boys was “a feature of normal life” for O…

  • Shakespeare, Race, and Queer Studies

    Mario DigangiCHAPTEROxford Handbook of Shakespeare…2024

    This chapter documents and promotes scholarship on the intersection of race and queer sexuality in Shakespeare’s plays. It provides a genealogy of the productive work that has been done at the intersection of these critical approaches and identifies ways in which the field might continue to grow. To illustrate that contemporary intersectional theory can still provide new insights even into the most familiar and frequently taught Shakespearean tex…

  • Sexual Types

    Mario DigangiBOOKSexual Types2012

    Sexual Types focuses on six figures from the early modern stage—the sodomite, the tribade, the narcissistic courtier, the citizen wife, the bawd, and the court favorite—that reveal in particularly compelling ways, how sexual transgressions were understood to intersect with social, gender, economic, and political transgressions.
