While Pushkin's original text can be analyzed through the lens of 19th-century homosocial bonding, the most profound queer interpretations are directed at Tchaikovsky’s opera.

#Putin #Gay #Literature Mr. Putin: The Gay Currents in the Russian Literature and Culture run deep, like in any other. To try to regulate them from above (the eternal Mongol-Tatar temptation) will not work, and these attempts are not very smart, to put it mildly. I advise you to revise your attitudes on this issue.

#BND #GermanIntel The BND's "Big Bang" reform German security chiefs, led by intelligence coordinator Philipp Wolff, are currently conducting a high-level consultation tour across Europe to gather best practices for a comprehensive overhaul of Germany's security architecture.
