Abstract
Queer Projections: Sexuality and Visibility Through the Avant-Garde
Lens
As a point of connection between multiple conceptions of sexuality
and its visible forms,
"queer cinema" now constitutes one of the major modes through which
sexual minorities
access cultural visibility. This dissertation brings cinema and
theory together in the
representation and analysis of non-normative sexualities, with
homosexuality as the
definitional center. Rather than prioritizing Hollywood film, as
previous studies have, this
work produces a story of queer cinema by examining films within,
and in relation to, the
American avant-garde.
