Sappho in Early Modern England: Female Same-Sex Literary Erotics, 1550-1714 Paperback - 2001 - 1st Edition
by Harriette Andreadis
From the rear cover
In Sappho in Early Modern England, Harriette Andreadis examines public and private expressions of female same-sex sexuality in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. Before the language of modern sexual identities developed, a variety of discourses in both literary and extraliterary texts began to establish a lexicon of female intimacy. Looking at accounts of non-normative female sexualities in travel narratives, anatomies, midwifery texts, and marital advice books, Andreadis outlines the vernacular through which a female same-sex erotics first entered verbal consciousness. She also demonstrates how women writers created a more evasive erotic language to express an intimate experience of female same-sex desire.
