She focuses less on defining who Douglas was than on why Douglas seems so monstrous to us when he often did not to those who knew and (yes) loved him. Cleves does more than sketch the conditions and influence of Douglas's life and work; she probes how changing social norms affect our aesthetic and moral assessments"--|cProvided by publisher 600 10 Douglas, Norman,|d1868-1952 600 14 Douglas, Norman,|d1868-1952 650 0 Authors, English|vBiography 650 0 Sodomy|zEngland 650 7 Engelska författare|2sao 650 7 Homosexualitet|2sao 651 7 Storbritannien|2sao 651 7 England.|2fast 655 7 Biografier|2saogf 655 7 Biographies.|2fast
