Queer Bloomsbury

This anthology presents important early essays that laid the foundation for queer studies of the Bloomsbury Group together with new essays that build upon this foundation to provide ground-breaking work on Bloomsbury figures and cultural achievements. As a whole, Queer Bloomsbury stands alone as a wide-ranging and critical resource that traces the cultural, ideological, and aesthetic facets of Bloomsbury's development as a queer intellectual and aesthetic subculture. In addition to new essays by widely recognised Bloomsbury scholars, five important ground-breaking essays are republished here, including Carlyn Heilbrun's germinal 1968 essay on the sexual dissidence of the Bloomsbury Group and Christopher Reed's influential 1991 essay exposing homophobia among academic scholars writing about the group. Also included are rarely seen reproductions of Duncan Grant's work from the Charleston archives as well as Dora Carrington's work from archives and a private collection. Queer Bloomsbury provides substantive information on the queer philosophical and ethical underpinnings of the Bloomsbury Group.
