Nonetheless, "rather than its historical accuracy (which is often questionable) . . . [what] makes this biography worthy of rejuvenation . . . [is that it] has much to say, not only about the late Uranians and their perceptions of pederastic and homoerotic history and the figures who peopled it, but also about the perceptions, or lack of perceptions, of their hetero-normative contemporaries" (from the Editor's Introduction). Beyond the text itself, the present scholarly edition includes extensive notes, illustrations, and appendices, all of which serve to elucidate the original, as well as to situate it within its Edwardian context and its Uranian milieu.… (més)
