This study challenges the idea that sex between women was unimaginable in British culture before the late 19th century. Author Lisa Moore argues that literary representations of "sapphic" relationships between women were central to 18th-century debates over English national identity and in novels were encoded within wider social concerns regarding race, nation, and colonialist ventures.
