The blog deals with the history of ambiguously sexed bodies, mainly in the West, from Antiquity to the present. What kind of lives lived ‚hermaphrodites’ (as they were called), how were they perceived and how were they ignored, as it was often the case? The blog presents historical scholarship, methodological issues and primary sources relating to a longue durée history of ambiguously sexed bodies.
Das Blog thematisiert die Geschichte geschlechtlich uneindeutiger Körper, vor allem in Europa, von der Antike bis in die Gegenwart. Wie lebten „Hermaphroditen“, wie sie lange meist genannt wurden, wie wurden sie wahrgenommen, wie wurden sie (häufig genug) nicht wahrgenommen? Das Blog soll historische Forschung, methodische Fragen und Primärtexte zur Diskussion stellen, die zu einer „langen Geschichte“ uneindeutiger Körper beitragen können.
