About This Book

This bibliography compiles a chronological listing of English-language fiction and poetry in which male homosexuality is central or present, spanning roughly 700 B.C. to 1958. It divides entries into Primary works, where homosexuality is intrinsic, and Other-Than-Primary works, which are classified by letter codes reflecting the degree and nature of homosexual content; entries also carry asterisk ratings for relative emphasis. The volume explains citation conventions and paperback/reprint abbreviations, states inclusion and exclusion criteria, provides multiple indexes by author, locale, occupation and topic, and notes sources while inviting corrections and updates.
