Notes: "An example of the firestorm in the French media that followed the publication of André Gide’s book Corydon, which drew on arguments from philosophy and natural history to defend male homosexuality--and specifically to assert the beneficial qualities of homosexual relations between men and adolescent youths. Parodying Gide’s essay, L’Anti-Corydon is written in the form of philosophical dialogues involving figures from antiquity and from classical and contemporary French literature to attack Gide’s arguments."--Bookseller's prospectus
