Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Wilde argues that “the writer of dialogues ‘can both reveal and conceal himself’” (William Shuter, “Pater, Wilde, Douglas and the Impact of “Greats”,” English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920, Vol. 46, No.
3 (2003), p. 263): what do we think of the idea that the Platonic dialogue has a direct and necessary relationship to the concept of the double life? It certainly seems to support the possibility of Hellenism being the primary component of the construction of a modern theory of homosexuality.
