¿ALEXANR VON HUMBOLDT, GAY?

100 Hero: Alexanr von Humboldt. The gay man who shaped the field of botanil geography. * alexander von humboldt gay *

There is a tenncy amongst amics to ‘pray the gay away’ by makg exc for notable figur’ same sex relatnships, and Alexanr von Humboldt is no exceptn. Many of his personal ‘love’ letters have been stroyed, which is unsurprisg given the laws on homosexualy at the time. There is no specific reference to the exact nature of the pair’s relatnship, though this trip was entirely self-fund and appears to ht at least the homosexual nature of the pair, if not toward each other.

What Humboldt’s ‘morn’ inty would have been (gay, bi, ace, pan etc. StonewallGenrIntelligence Gay’s The Word.

Though he stroyed his personal papers and letters prr to his ath, his patrts acknowledged his homosexualy posthumoly.

Why is there a popular need to attribute and dismiss homosexual behavur among proment historil figur of this time as part of a Romantic leang? As well, what is that drove many historil figur of this time to attempt to ver up their homosexualy by stroyg personal documents?

Se trata, más bien, unas notas bgráfis relativas a lo que se sospechaba, pero que da vez más una evincia: su homosexualidad y pasión por los hombr.

Francis Barrs transcribe algunos agmentos la rrponncia entre José Celto Mutis y Francis José Caldas que revelan las pasn tos hombr por otros hombr y la gran dificultad vivir su homosexualidad en un ntexto más que adverso. Y en ta Ardia, dida solo a lo gay, también hay textos terant sobre el cror Andrés Caicedo, n una lectura queer su obra y algunas notas sobre su tormentosa orientación sexual. Hay apunt muy divertidos sobre el mundo la bohemia los 70 en el artículo que retrata a los artistas la Cola la Dhonra (Gr, Díaz y Moure, entre otros), textos sobre la imagen los gays en la televisión lombiana y norteamerina, artículos sobre cror y artistas queer (Pedro Lemebel, Pierre y Gill) y muchas notas sobre el universo masculo homosexual.
