Description

Although John Donne enjoyed a reputation as a visitor of ladies during his lifetime, the poetry that he left in manuscript can lead modern readers to doubt that the objects of his affections were always women. Klawitter's study contends that, in Donne's later poems that have traditionally been read as heterosexual expressions of love, readers can find themselves lost in a welter of pronouns that, often insufficiently determinate of gender, can fit convincingly in a homoerotic context.

Author Biography:

The Author: George Klawitter holds a master's degree in English Language and Literature from the University of Michigan, and a doctorate in British Renaissance Literature from the University of Chicago. He has edited the poetry of Richard Barnfield and published numerous articles in medieval and Renaissance studies.
