By Matt Cook. Cook explores the relationship between London and homosexuality during a time marked by intensification in concern about male-male relationships and also by the emergence of an embryonic homosexual rights movement. Cook combines his coverage of London’s homosexual subculture and various major and minor scandals with a detailed examination of representations in the press, science and literature.

By James Davidson. James Davidson asks us to forget everything we thought we knew about the intimate culture of the Ancient Greeks and start again from scratch.
