Abstract (en)

On suggestions of a connection between Hervey's sexual ambiguities (homosexuality or bisexuality) and the ethical ambiguities of his political associations in satiric portraits of the 1730s and 1740s: Pope's Epistle to Dr. Arbuthnot; Fielding's Shamela and Joseph Andrews; and Hogarth's conversation piece of Lord Hervey and His Friends (Ickworth House).
