Arguing for renewed attention to covert same-sex-oriented writing, this study explores the representation of female and male homosexuality in late sixteenth- through mid-eighteenth-century British and French literature. It also uncovers and analyzes long-term continuities in the representation of same-sex love, sex, and desire.

Robinson discusses each of Emerson's major later works noting their increasing orientation to a philosophy of the 'conduct of life'. These books represent Emerson's attempt to forge a philosophy based on the centrality of domestic life, vocation and social relations and they reveal Emerson as an ethical philosopher who stressed the spiritual value of human relations, work and social action.
