About this title: In the late 15th century, one in two Florentine men had come to the attention of authorities for sodomy before the age of 30. Michael Rocke depicts this vibrant sexual culture in a world where same-sex acts were not considered as a deviant transgression of a small minority, but as an integral part of a normal masculine identity.
