Abstract

ABSTRACT This article argues that mid-eighteenth-century Moravian religious discourse produced unique forms of self, desire, and community. It uses queer theory to reframe previous scholarship on Moravian masculinity, homoeroticism, marriage, and social structure in order to emphasize aspects of Moravian cultural difference that have been elided in such debates as whether Moravian men were effeminate and whether the choir was a threat to the family.
