Works by Early Writers Considered to be Lesbians

From the Paper:

"The seventeenth century poem "To My Excellent Lucasia, On Our Friendship" by Katherine Philips was considered by her contemporaries as "a pure expression of idealized, platonic love" (Faderman 18).. A nineteenth century poem by Emily Dickinson was denied as lesbian by many twentieth century critics(43). The twentieth century novel Well of Loneliness by Radclyffe Hall typified the medical inversion of lesbianism."
