  • Summary

    This chapter explores how a set of gay men living in Cambridge developed their art and sexuality together, to explore the connections between a gay life and an artistic life in the twentieth century. It uses archival material to analyse the biographies of John Tressider Sheppard, Dadie Rylands, Roger Fry, Edward Dent and Boris Ord – figures who made significant contributions to theatre, music, literature and art on a national and international scale which were formed by their experiences in Cambridge.
