In literary images of lesbianism from Defoe and Diderot to Virginia Woolf and Djuna Barnes, noted author Castle traces the history of the ‘apparitional lesbian’ and the evolution of lesbian sensibility from 1750 to the present, showing that a ‘real’ lesbian can be identified in culture, history, and literature before the modern era. 30 illustrations.
