By utilizing a wealth of archival materials, including diaries, correspondence, unpublished manuscripts, and photograph albums, the book narrates the stories of individuals with connections to late-Victorian Decadence and Oscar Wilde who sought inspiration from the fin-de-siècle past as they navigated the boundaries imposed by heteronormative norms governing marriage and family. These post-Victorian Decadents and Decadent modernists engaged in translation, travel, and transnational collaborations, seeking alternative models of connection that could challenge conventional sexual and gender ideals. Queer Kinship after Wilde explores the successes and challenges that emerged from these experiments, as well as the new approaches to affiliation influenced by a cosmopolitan or global perspective within these networks. Additionally, it sheds light on the practices marked by Decadence's troubling patterns of Orientalism and racial fetishism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 550g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 158 x 235 x 24 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781316519912\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KristinMahoney","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44095068995834,"sku":"9781316519912","price":80.03,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1665165331117_book.jpg?v=1665342035","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/queer-kinship-after-wilde-transnational-decadence-and-the-family-9781316519912","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
