摘要:The study focuses at first on the implementation of the binary scheme of sexual distribution in Tommaso Campanella's (1568-1639) classic utopia La Città del Sole(1502) [The City of the Sun], and Charles Beaumont's (1929-1967) "The Crooked Man," a kakotopian short story published by Playboyin 1955. Against this backdrop, the elaborations assess the contributions of Charles Fourier (1772-1837), Charles Darwin (1809-1882), and Magnus Hirschfeld (1868-1935) to the dissolution of dichotomous sexuality in the name of a continuous pattern of sexual diversity. Radicalizing the theoretical challenge posed by Fourier's Le nouveau monde amoureux(1817-1819) [The New World of Love], the first full-blown sexual utopia in the Western intellectual tradition, Monique Wittig's (1935-2003) utopian narratives culminate, as the final sections show, with the postulation of sexualities as diverse as the number of sexed individuals
