Male Friendship and Testimonies of Love in Shakespeare's England
reveals the complex and unfamiliar forms of friendship that existed
between men in the late sixteenth century. Using the unpublished
letter archive of the Elizabethan spy Anthony Bacon (1558-1601), it
shows how Bacon negotiated a path through life that relied on the
support of his friends, rather than the advantages and status that
came with marriage. Through a set of case-studies focusing on the
Inns of Court, the prison, the aristocratic great house and the
spiritual connection between young and ardent Protestants, this
book argues that the 'friendship spaces' of early modern England
permitted the expression of male same-sex intimacy to a greater
extent than has previously been acknowledged.
