It focusses on close readings of Gothic fiction, Sensation Novels, and tales by Horace Walpole, Ann Radcliffe, William Godwin, Mary Elizabeth Braddon, Wilkie Collins, and Henry James. The study approaches these texts through the lens of domestic space, gender, knowledge, and power. This approach serves to investigate the cultural roots of the ›closet‹ – the male homosexual secret – which reveals a more general notion of male secrecy in modern society. The study thus contributes to a better understanding of the cultural history of masculinities and sexualities.LettreBauer, Houses, Secrets, and the ClosetLocating Masculinities from the Gothic Novel to Henry JamesLiteratureGenderQueerMasculinityHomosexualityGothic NovelSensation NovelHenry JamesLiterary StudiesBritish StudiesAmerican StudiesGender StudiesCultural StudiesLiteratureGenderQueerMasculinityHomosexualityGothic NovelSensation NovelHenry JamesLiterary StudiesBritish StudiesAmerican StudiesGender StudiesCultural Studies420Bauer Gero<p>Gero Bauer, Universität Tübingen, Deutschland</p>aut1855418Knowledge Unlatched - KU Select 2017: Backlist Collectionfndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910263846003321Houses, Secrets, and the Closet4453565UNINA
