Com certeza! Aqui está a tradução para o inglês:
Amaral Arévalo (CLAM/IMS/UERJ) published the text ‘“¿Más allá del horizonte hay un arcoíris? Homosexuales, revoluciones y guerras internas en El Salvador y América Latina en el siglo XX “
The text analyzes the life experiences of a Salvadoran homosexual man on the war fronts in the 1980s. The narrative Mas allá del Horizonte (Leiva, 2002) is used as a guiding axis, establishing a Central and Latin American dialogue with narratives that address themes of the left, homosexuality, and social and armed revolutions in the 20th century. In summary, it is observed that the utopia of a revolutionary society inclusive of sexual difference, which many homosexual men held when they enlisted, fought, and died on the war fronts, was not fulfilled. On the contrary, they encountered revolutionary forms of discrimination processes based on sexual orientation that included forced sexual abstinence, symbolic violence, rape, and homicide.
