These popular terms includecategories such as homohetero patriarchalfeminist and masculineeffeminate.This collection exploits this frameworkwhile refining and resisting it inplacesto show how certain Victorians imagined difference in ways thatcontinue to challenge us today.One essay for example traces the remarkable feminist appropriation of maleidentified fields of study such as Classical philology. Others address thevalidation of male bodies as objects of desire in writing painting andemergent modernist choreography. The writings shed light on the diverseinterests served by a range of cultural practitioners and on the complex waysin which the late Victorians invented themselves as modern subjects.This volume will be essential reading for students of British literary andcultural history as well as for those interested in feminist gay and lesbianstudies.Contributors are Oliver Buckton Richard Dellamora Dennis Denisoff RegeniaGagnier Eric Haralson Andrew Hewitt Christopher Lane Thais Morgan YopiePrins Kathy Alexis Psomiades Julia Saville Robert Sulcer Jr. MarthaVicinus. «
