Homogenic Love, and Its Place in a Free Society

Title: Homogenic Love, and Its Place in a Free Society
Description: Socialist Edward Carpenter used his writing to advocate for new ways of living. This appeal for gay and lesbian equality was published in 1894, only the year before Oscar Wilde was imprisoned for his homosexuality. Carpenter had hoped this essay would be published as part of a collection but the text was deemed dangerous and was published as a pamphlet for private circulation only.
