Summary/Abstract: Histories of homosexual identity in Poland and other countries of the Eastern Bloc usually begin in late 1980s, with the emergence of first periodicals aimed at nonheteronormative readers and (informal) organizations fighting for their rights. The authors of this book look at what was before that – studying everyday life, expert discourses, literature, art and social networks, and comparing the situation in Poland with examples from both sides of the Iron Curtain. In their search for signs of emancipation of LGBTQ+ people and for mechanisms standing in its way they are aided by the concept of sexual citizenship, based on a broad definition of citizenship as a sense of belonging in terms of culture and identity along with the enjoyment of full rights.

- Summary/Abstract:This chapter examines how two forms of male sexual non-normativity – homosexuality and sexual deviance – were understood and treated in socialist Czechoslovakia. By analyzing the distinct expert and institutional responses to these phenomena, it reveals the underlying structures that determined their visibility or invisibility across different periods. Drawing on sociological approaches and extensive primary sources, the chapter analyzes how expert knowledge shaped the distinctive trajectory of sexual liberation under socialism.

- Keywords:sexology; sex education; homosexuality; Poland; homophobia
- Summary/Abstract:The chapter focuses on the development of expert approaches towards homosexuality in Poland. It shows that under state socialism sexologists and sex educators represented liberal attitudes towards homosexuality and educated the public about the need for tolerance to sexual non-normativity. At the same time, they developed a very specific indirect style of writing about non-normative sexuality that limited the possibility of discussing it. The chapter analyzes the legacy of this approach and places it in the context of today’s debates on sexuality and the growth of homophobic discourses in Poland.

Based on documents from the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN), it explores how the Milicja Obywatelska (Citizen's Militia) and Ministry of Internal Affairs monitored this group, culminating in the 1985 Operation Hyacinth – a mass registration of homosexual men. The study highlights the sociopolitical motivations behind these actions and their unintended role in fostering early LGBTQ+ activism in Poland.

- Keywords:Polish literature; Eastern Europe; queer theory; Maria Janion; Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick
- Summary/Abstract:In this article, I trace the genealogy of the Polish discourse on “otherness”/queerness as a distinct intellectual tradition. To do so, I draw on and connect two key cultural phenomena. First, I examine the interwar discussions on homosexuality in literature and society, particularly those surrounding the works of Witold Gombrowicz. Second, I consider the series of "Transgresje" ["Transgressions"] anthologies from the 1980s, edited by Maria Janion and her collaborators, with particular focus on the 1982 volume "Odmieńcy" ["Outsiders"]. I argue that these two cultural phenomena are linked by their references to Gothic aesthetics. To explore the queer implications of this connection, I juxtapose two approaches to the Gothic: that of Maria Janion and that of Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick.

Furthermore, the ways of writing about these artists’ oeuvre and its – queerphobic in some cases – understanding in Polish art history and criticism are also discussed.

I set out the landscape with a discussion of Rafał Morusiewicz’s film Uprooting Ghosts, which affectively engages with narratives of communist Poland, seeking out scattered traces of bodies, embodiment, desire, and sex, to create spaces for imagining and fostering possibilities of queerness in Poland today. By making affective and often desiring connections with an archival subject, Morusiewicz’s work offers a reimagining of sexualities in Poland beyond heteronormativity as their compulsory marker.

- Summary/Abstract:The film "Another Way" (1982) was a female love drama of Hungarian production directed by Károly Makk, based on Erzsébet Galgóczi's autobiographical novel "Within the Law and Outside the Law" (1980). The film found its way into mainstream art cinema and gained international recognition in the festival circuit. This article discusses the reception of the film in the cultural press in Hungary and Poland, the latter due to the involvement of Polish actresses: Jadwiga Jankowska-Cieślak and Grażyna Szapołowska as the main characters. The topic of lesbian love became a theme in film journalism and one of the events that contributed to the groundbreaking changes for the Central European LGBT movement in the first half of the 1980s.

It is argued here that long-lasting correspondence between friends and brothers helped them exist in a highly homophobic political and social environment. Their writing practices are analyzed as paradoxical strategies of both resistance to systemic oppression and subordination to political power.

Schulman recounts ACT UP’s activism against government inaction and pharmaceutical greed during the AIDS crisis, highlighting its successes in changing AIDS definitions and drug access policies. She emphasizes the crucial role of diverse voices, particularly women and people of color, within the predominantly white male organization, and contrasts ACT UP’s approach to other representations of AIDS activism, which stemmed from a unique operational strategy of direct action informed by feminist principles. The chapter also explores the creation of the ACT UP Oral History Project to document the movement’s legacy and counter inaccurate narratives.

- Summary/Abstract:This article examines the surprising continuities between public male-to-male sex culture in pre-Second-World-War, German-administered Breslau and its Polish successor, the city of Wrocław. Despite a practically complete population exchange after the war, male cruising occurred mostly in the same settings, which is argued to provide evidence for the fact that urban public male-to-male sex does not occur in random places, but in highly specific spatial contexts. It is possible to talk about a certain topography of cruising: one which, admittedly, is not based on absolute laws, but a set of patterns and regularities.

- Summary/Abstract:The 1980s marked the rise of the gay and lesbian rights movement in the German Democratic Republic. This article discusses attempts to publicly commemorate lesbian victims of Nazi persecution at the memorial site of the Ravensbrück concentration camp in the mid-1980s by the East Berlin-based group Lesben in der Kirche. Their aim was to make lesbians and their history more visible. For the self-proclaimed anti-fascist state, commemorating the victims of Nazi persecution was central to its political identity. Making visible that there were more victims of Nazi persecution than communist resistance fighters was a way for activists to attract public attention. At the same time, it was a strategy for forming a shared collective memory as part of their identity politics, which went hand in hand with an understanding of homosexuality as a political identity.

- No. of Pages:20
- Keywords:People’s Republic of Poland; homosexuality; sociality; counterpublics; oral history
- Summary/Abstract:The chapter examines the history of gay male culture in Poland in the People’s Republic of Poland. The author argues that a distinct “queer apartment civilization” emerged in major cities like Warsaw, where private homes provided safe havens for clandestine gatherings, parties, and social interaction among homosexual men. This “civilization” served as a pre-emancipatory form of gay subculture, facilitating the formation of identity and community amidst a restrictive societal environment. The author analyzes this phenomenon by focusing on the experiences of Mariusz and Marek, two men who met in the mid-1970s and became deeply involved in Warsaw’s homosexual social scene. The text explores the diverse experiences within these private spaces, including the distinction between elite gatherings and more informal parties, highlighting the interplay of class and social stratification within the male homosexual community.

- Summary/Abstract:This essay explores methodological dilemmas emerging from research on the experience of non-heterosexual women, as narrated by them in interviews. Their self-identification is the subject of reflection here: some, but not all, self-identify as lesbians. It is argued that the concept of “invisibility”, which has dominated scholarship on the topic, needs to be re-examined in light of these self-narratives and replaced with “illegibility”, a category derived from the analyzed interviews, thus responding to calls for epistemic justice. It implies that, in a given culture, not only is the representation of a given experience lacking, but that it remains unrecognized even when it is visible.
