The Other Orpheus: A Poetics of Modern Homosexuality - Literary Criticism and Cultural Theory
Merrill Cole
Positing that male homoeroticism is a crucial component of any comprehensive understanding of modernism and the crisis of modern masculine identity, this text explores how homoerotic affect - instantiated in the works of Rimbaud, Crane and Eliot - contributes to queer theory, and shows what poetry has to offer critical inquiry.
