"The homosexual in literature" by Noel I. Garde is a bibliographic reference work written in the mid-20th century. It compiles a chronological list of English-language fiction featuring male homosexuality, guiding readers with categorizations, content ratings, and detailed indexes. The focus is on identifying and classifying portrayals of male homosexual themes across genres rather than judging literary merit. The opening of this bibliography sets out its scope and exclusions: English-language fiction about male homosexuality only; no female-only treatments, medical or psychiatric texts, philosophical studies, magazine pieces, or standard biographies (except select autobiographical “primary” cases). It defines two parallel sections—Primary and Other Than Primary (OTP)—and explains an asterisk scale for the amount of homosexual content alongside letter codes (a–f) describing how it appears (from major explicit treatment to brief or suspected references). Practical notes follow on paperback and reprint abbreviations, expurgations, methods for updating entries, and the choice of chronological arrangement, plus indexes by locale, profession, and topics, and acknowledgments to key contributors. The text then launches the Primary listings, illustrating the format with numbered entries spanning the late 19th to mid-20th centuries (across novels, stories, poems, plays, and memoirs), before moving into a Classics section and extensive OTP entries, all cross-referenced to the special indexes.
