Even straights should be moved by the passn much of the material here, pecially the Walt Whman and Constante Cavafy poems. Selectns beg wh Sumerian lore, span classil Greek and Lat, ntue through European, English, Lat Amerin, and Amerin lerary perds, and end wh morn gay wrg sce 1969 (Jam Baldw, Edmund Whe, and others). Ls nonil than Whman, Aun, Baldw, etc., are thors of the hidn herage, who balance Fone’s wi selectn of sential homoerotic wrers. He apologiz that his space don—t allow for cludg exampl of the gay drama sprgg om Mart Crowley’s semal Boys the Band (1968), but each historil perd bears s own troductn. Fone’s edorial “we” refers to gay men rather than lbians, who have their own texts and anthologi. Stunts and nonamics will fd this mendably readable.

Gay and Lbian Studi is by nature cross-disciplary, verg a wi range of tellectual bas: lerature, history, relign, psychology, soclogy, philosophy, anthropology, medice, law, fe arts, and others. Dpe the prence of large numbers of homosexuals New York Cy and other urban centers the Uned Stat and throughout the world, their history has often been neglected or margalized, a ttimony to the hibg factors of legal rtrictns on certa forms of sexual nduct, the lack of anizatn among gay men and lbians, and the unwillgns of the larger society to regnize the value and mer of different forms of erotic and affectnal exprsn. The term "uranian" was nsired, but failed to fd favor and was replaced by words such as "homosexual" and "homophile, " arbrary nstctns which, though workable, have been emed too clil some quarters.

THE COLUMBIA ANTHOLOGY OF GAY LITERATURE

Yet this nascent attempt at intifyg and llectg materials relatg to the homosexual experience was self hibed and circumscribed by the need of many lbians and gay men to lead hidn liv, fearful that self-disclosure would rult a loss of employment or legal difficulti. Of urse, this very secrecy has ma rearch strategi to the area of gay studi problematic, wh scholars eher attemptg to tu meangs not overtly exprsed historil rerds or employg materials (such as urt or police reports) to intify behavr not discsed more nventnal sourc.
