Gender and Sexuality in Modern Britain, c1850 to the Present B: Sexuality and Sexual Behaviour (HIST0376)

This module examines the changing representations and lived experiences of gender and sexuality in late nineteenth and twentieth-century Britain. It focuses upon key events in history when gender conventions were questioned, and the gender order thrown into sharp relief. At its core is a consideration of how gender illuminates wider issues of power in society, and the way this has changed over time.

The second term focuses on sexuality, specifically the changing expectations and trends in regards to men’s and women’s sexual behaviour. We will work with a variety of source material throughout the course, including medical and legal sources, personal narratives, films and oral histories.
