It contains rare, unpublished, primary material, extensive critical and contextual material by the editor, and refuses to discriminate between issues of sex, sexuality and gender. The coverage includes: * extracts dealing with anatomy and medicine * the cultural construction of eunuchs and hermaphrodites * famous trials for sodomy and the forgotten victims of the law * representations of effeminate men, fops and sodomites * Sapphic texts which portray cross-dressing, mannish women and female husbands
