About this book

Stephen Guy-Bray argues that early modern authors used renditions of Theocritan and Virgilian pastoral, as well as epic poetry, for the exploration and the allusive presentation of homoerotic and homosocial themes.

Reviews

Goran Stanivukovic, Department of English, St. Mary's University:

'Both Renaissance and classical queer scholarship will be enriched by this book sparkling with provocative arguments and fresh analyses. Guy-Bray's knowledge of the classics is admirable and his reading of the Renaissance uses of them is impressive.'
