Abstract

V originále

Particularly in regard to Frederick Rolfe, this paper considers the ways that the voyeuristic posturing of the Uranians constitutes a unique temperament in English letters. Secondly, it considers the ways that the illegality of their desires resulted in a form of self-fashioning no less marked than that of their Elizabethan predecessors, though taking a different stance, a stance gilded by an astonishing degree of secrecy, a secrecy that makes the Uranians a scholarly challenge to engage.
