Bray's goal here is simple: examine the lived experiences & cultural understandings of same-sex desire and friendship in early modern England, all without relying on modern terminology for sexuality (ironic given the title). Head over to my BLOG at

Head to
www.ryanlawrenceauthor.ca/blog to read my review of Edward Lucie-Smith's ADAM:
THE MALE FIGURE IN ART (Rizzoli, 1998).
This book explores the history of the male figure in art across a wide range of media, including statuary, fine art, photography, pen-and-ink drawing, pop art, & eroticism.

That totally beats my UK cheque for 6 cents. 🙌

Christina!!! I should have known you’d know where to find the boys and the mistletoe!!

On my BLOG! www.ryanlawrenceauthor.ca Jonathan Goldberg’s Queering the Renaissance occupies a seminal, perhaps even radical, place in queer literary & historical studies, particularly for those interested in how same-sex love/desire/gender functioned before the emergence of modern sexual identities.

This book takes me back to the late 90s & Toronto’s Glad Day Bookshop! Read my review at www.ryanlawrenceauthor.ca

Editor David Leddick’s The Male Nude (TASCHEN, October 1998) is a landmark collection of 768 black-and-white photographs tracing the evolution of male nude photography in Western art.
