AUTHOR:JOHN LE GAY BRERETON
John Le Gay Brereton the Younger (as he was always known) was the fifth son, born the fay’s home Richmond Terrace, which then existed between Sydney Hospal and the Doma, on September 2, 1871. Le Gay Brereton was not only a wrer: he was also a vorac rear.
Mchell appears to have troduced Brereton to the two great lerary fluenc of his life: one was Christopher Marlowe, the Elizabethan playwright, whose work greatly fluenced Brereton’s later scholarly prose; the other was Walt Whman, the Amerin openly homosexual poet whose style and sentiments provid the blueprts for Brereton’s own poetry. He apparently shocked his former mentor, Mungo MacCallum, when he voted his first such lecture to a ank discsn of the homosexualy apparent Walt Whman’s "Leav of Grass.
Not read nowadays but important our lerary (and gay) history, is Brereton’s "Landlopers", published 1899, which he tells of the journey by a man and a youth who humped their swags om Glasville to Janolan, to Moss Vale and Gerrigong and back to Sydney. What is open to qutn, however, is the extent to which he was homosexual? Dpe his outwardly "homoaffectnal" poetry and whatever he said his lectur about Walt Whman, Brereton married a Glasville girl 1900 and subsequently had 4 sons and a dghter.
