Тезаурус:

1. To understand why, argues Gilbert, we need to understand the construction of the sodomite, his association at that time with evil, rebellion, and insurrection, and the belief that to tolerate his sin was to court the possibility of divine revenge (as with Sodom and Gomorrah).
2. The Marquis of Queensberry may be judged, in this context, to have made an involuntary and uncharacteristic joke in accusing Wilde of "posing as a somdomite ": a phrase that smells of the multiple self, and of the uncertainty of interpretation - and indeed spelling (Ackroyd, as it happens, interprets him as something other than a sodomite).
3. Should such passages lead us to say that Lawrence was a heterosexual sodomite or "repressed homosexual"?
4. As we saw in Chapter 14, Michel Foucault argues that before the nineteenth century the sodomite was someone who performed a certain kind of act ; no specific identity was attributed to, or assumed by, the sodomite.
5. Imaged in such terms, the sodomite indeed became the supreme instance of the demonized other.
6. The sodomite becomes a virulent image of this threat, embodying a foreign infection which in turn is linked to social disorder and economic collapse at home.
7. I suggest that in early modern England the sodomite, though not an identity in the modern sense, could and did denote subject positions or types; "he" precisely characterized deviant subject positions as well as denoting the behaviour of individuals.
8. But so extreme was the sodomite's construction that most of those actually engaging in "homo/sexuality, did not identify themselves with it; not only did they not have our modern categories, but the prevailing categories were so tar removed from how they saw themselves, that apparently the connection was not made.
9. Such arguments suggest that the perception of the sodomite was already implicated in the constructions of gender and sexual difference, and, through them, of identity, subjectivity, and social ordering more generally, and the anxieties attendant upon all these things.
10. This mythology found an immediate focus: the sodomite was perceived as an internal deviant who refigured a foreign threat, in this case the threat from the French.
11. At that time sodomy was associated with a whole range of evils, including insurrection and heresy; all such evils could be, and often were, "imagined" in the form of, or at least in relation to, the sodomite.
12. That individuals prosecuted for sodomy did not necessarily identify themselves with the demonized sodomite of official discourse also lends credence to Foucault's distinction between sodomy as a kind of behaviour, and homosexuality as a modern identity.
