Prof Aleardo Zanghellini - Professor of Law and Social Theory at the University of Reading

In this episode, we speak to Prof Aleardo Zanghellini from the University of Reading's School of Law. Aleardo tells us about: how law and legal theory interacts with queer heritage; how the law operated against men who had sex with men; his novel Spellbinders, a work of historical fiction centring on Edward II's same-sex desire; how more diverse queer stories, including those of women and trans people, can be found in criminal archives; and his latest work on how same-sex desire played a part in the government of Fiume.
