Litteraturlista Tidigmodern queerlitteratur

Kärlek och begär, kropp och makt, normer och överskridande samt likhet och skillnad är teman som präglar primärlitteraturen. Sekundärlitteraturen historierar tidigmodern sexualitet, diskuterar centrala frågeställningar inom tidigmoderna queerstudier och introducerar queera lässtrategier.

Examination sker genom en cento som består av rader från minst fyra primärkällor, samt en uppsats om ca 6–8 sidor som diskuterar ett vetenskapligt problem med utgångspunkt i centon. 

Primärlitteratur ca 620 s; sekundärlitteratur ca 920 s.
