Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century social upheaval, this exploration of Stefan George's poetry reveals how he articulated a modern identity for homosexual men. As the term 'homosexual' emerged, George's verses fostered a sense of community and connection among men grappling with societal isolation. His body of work, spanning from the early 1890s to 1928, navigates themes of loneliness, love, and loss, ultimately culminating in a powerful affirmation of authenticity in a world dominated by rigid masculinity and war-induced grief.
