Arguing for renewed attention to covert same-sex-oriented writing (and to authorial intention more generally) this study explores the representation of female and male homosexuality in late sixteenth- through mid-eighteenth-century British and French literature. The author also uncovers and analyzes long-term continuities in the representation of same-sex love sex and desire. Covering multiple genres (poems plays novels) and modes (such as satire scandal and pornography) this study engages with the historiography of sexuality as a whole.
