About the Book

Queer Tango Histories: Making a Start was first published in 2020 as a free eBook (pdf) by the Queer Tango Project run by Birthe Havmøller. This is its first publication as a paperback.

Queer Tango Histories is an anthology of Ray’s historical queer tango academic papers written between 2014 and 2019. These are for the most part based on the rich collection of historical visual material to be found in The Queer Tango Image Archive. The Archive is an online collection of historical imagery which relates to the themes touched on by queer tango and is curated by Ray on behalf of the Queer Tango Project.
