Items related to Mars without Venus: Study of Homosexual Generals
Synopsis
From the dust jacket blurb:" When Mars was discovered in the arms of his lover, venus, the hapless god of war was summarily exposed to the ridicule of his Olympian colleagues. This humiliating experience may well have been a contributory factor to his success on the battlefield. It is likely that the lives of the generals who are the subject of this book were greatly influenced by a psychological failure similar to Mars's humiliation - their homosexuality. Living in times when homosexual inclinations were at the very least looked upon as abhorrent and a matter for concealment, these men became great military heroes, each himself a mars without Venus, as Prince Eugene of Savoy was in fact described. How sublimation of their homosexuality shaped their characters and personalities - and consequently helped set them on the course to greatness - is the central theme of this book".
