Notes

  • 1) To assign the label “lesbian” to any text of this period is highly problematic since it subsumes so many different concepts such as androgyny, hermaphroditism, inversion, or mannish women. As Judith Halberstam argues: “I have argued to keep the label 'lesbian' at bay throughout the first half of the twentieth century. Neither Fred (Anne) Lister, Woods and Pirie, John (Radclyffe) Hall, Colonel Barker, Robert (Mary) Allen, the women in Havelock Ellis' case histories nor their lovers would have identified as lesbians. When we describe them as such, we tend to stabilize contemporary definitions of lesbianism.” (Halberstam 109).
  • 2) “Deterritorialisation frees a possibility or event from its actual origins. [...] Deterritorialisation occurs when an event of becoming escapes or detaches from its original territory” (Colebrook 58/59).
