Recenzii

"The writing is informative but also provocative, critical and yet consistently accurate and inclusive in the selection of works discussed." -- Library Journal
"...superb reference work." -- American Reterence Books Annual 2003
"Comprehensive in scope, taking us from ancient to contemporary times and treating each topic with an admirable thoroughness, this is the first edition of what I predict will become an authoritative record for an expanding 'literary heritage'." -- Richard Schneider Jr., editor of The Harvard Gay and Lesbian Review
"This remarkable volume contains essential reading for gay people seeking evidence of ancient roots and roles--and for anyone else who wants a more complete picture of the origins of literary endeavor than formal education usually offers." -- Lisa Alther, author of Kinflicks and Five Minutes in Heaven
"It is dedicated to the recovery, consolidation, and document of the diverse legacies of same sex love in literature, and the 150-plus scholars from around the world who ahve authored these articles should be proud to have contributed so successfully to that mission." -- Library Journal, G. Douglas Meyers
