描述 | .Male Friendship and Testimonies of Love in Shakespeare’s England. reveals the complexand unfamiliar forms of friendship that existed between men in the latesixteenth century. Using the unpublished letter archive of the Elizabethan spyAnthony Bacon (1558-1601), it shows how Bacon negotiated a path through lifethat relied on the support of his friends, rather than the advantages andstatus that came with marriage. Through a set of case-studies focusing on theInns of Court, the prison, the aristocratic great house and the spiritualconnection between young and ardent Protestants, this book argues that the‘friendship spaces’ of early modern England permitted the expression of malesame-sex intimacy to a greater extent than has previously beenacknowledged. . |
