Sent: 20 October 2012 13:12 While I don't assume that Boswell's interpretations reflect an objective history, I think his efforts reveal the degree to which all of our interpretations are constructed to fit our own imagined past. That is, the homophobic and heterocentrist readings are also trying to support an imagined "wishful thinking" past which may or may not reflect reality.
