Synopsis
Nineteenth-Century Writings on Homosexuality collects together texts concerned with same-sex desire in the nineteenth and early twentieth century. This comprehensive collection ranges widely both generically and chronologically, including prose, poetry, fiction, history and polemic from 1810 to 1914. Containing a general introduction, section headnotes, a bibliography of primary and secondary source material, and sections on The Law, Science, Love, and Sex, this book is extraordinarily well researched. Nineteenth-Century Writings on Homosexuality: A Sourcebook includes writing on: * trials and scandals * censorship and homophobia * cultural and personal history * love and friendship * lesbianism * aestheticism and decadence * sexual tourism and colonialism * cross-class desire * sodomy and sadomasochism Bringing together for the first time in one volume a wide range of primary source material, this fascinating book includes many texts unavailable outside very specialised academic libraries.
