In ""Canons and Closets,"" five essays discuss curricular and organisational shifts related to lesbian and gay studies. ""Sameness and Differences"" presents five essays that explore the influence of race, gender, and sexuality on gay and lesbian identity. Finally, the section ""Transgressing Subjects"" gathers four critical readings of various works.
