The literature of lesbianism
Beginning with an excerpt from Ariosto's comic epic poem, Orlando Furioso, the anthology progresses chronologically through the next five centuries, presenting selections from Shakespeare, John Donne, Katherine Philips, Aphra Behn, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Alexander Pope, The Marquis de Sade, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Charlotte Brontë, Emily Dickinson, Guy de Maupassant, Henry James, Willa Cather, Virginia Woolf, Ernest Hemingway, Nella Larsen, Colette, and Graham Greene, among others. It also includes some anonymous works, as well as numerous translations from the writers of antiquity, such as Sappho, Ovid, Martial, and Juvenal, whose rediscovery in the early Renaissance helped shape subsequent Western literary representations of female homosexuality.- Creator

Willa Cather
Studie naar het werk van de lesbische schrijfster Willa Cather (1873-1947). De auteur bekijkt Cather's werk uit de periode 1890-1930, de tijd waarin 'queer' de term werd om de verschillen tussen de heteroseksualtieit en homoseksualtieit te markeren. In het werk van Cather wordt de ontwikkeling en het gebruik van de term queer bekeken. Er wordt aandacht besteed aan Cather's pogingen de canon een etnische en gender-component te geven. Leven en werk van Cather worden ook bekeken tegen de achtergrond van politieke en culturele ontwikkelingen en de periode. Het boek levert een bijdrage aan de vorming van homoseksuele en lescbische identieit in de Verenigde Staten.- Creator

Women of the left bank
Benstock presents the women who left their enduring mark on the cultural milieu of a nation. Through their writings, including unpublished and newly available documentary sources of the period, Djuna Barnes, Nancy Cunard, Jean Rhys, Gertrude Stein, Edith Wharton and others are revealed as significant in the development of modernism, imagism and other avant-garde movements in which they were often overshadowed or ignored by their male counterparts. Benstock tracks the sexually liberated lifestyles and the creative originality of these women with a wealth of documentation. .'What was it like to be a woman in literary Paris?'' That city's Left Bank, says the author, was in the early part of the 20th century 'inhabited by all those on the margin of culture, a place for the dislocated, even the dispossessed.' Among these expatriates were women writers, editors, poets, journalists, and novelists who came to Paris from America or England, often to escape a family or society that made it hard for them to live as a lesbian or a black woman--or simply as an intelligent, ambitious person uninterested in settling into traditional domestic life.- Creator
