The years between 1850 and 1900 were the vintage years of a
discreet homosexual culture in England. In this period,
educational, personal and foreign influences all contributed to the
establishment of a trend expressed in the works of authors such as
John Addington Symonds, Walter Pater, and A.E. Housman, and in
those of lesser writers, now largely forgotten. This book, first
published in 1970, is an anthology of English prose and verse,
either homosexual in tone or providing a vehicle for homosexual
emotions, and in several examples even overtly and experimentally
frank. The book includes an introduction by Brian Reade explaining
the network of friendships and associations which underlay this
development and tracing some of its origins.
