Daniel Dunglas Home always knew he wasn't like the other boys. Not because he was gay, but because, while they were out on the sports field playing rugby, he was communicating with the dead. Despite being a huge celebrity in Victorian England, today Home is almost unknown. In this special episode, academic and novelist Avery Curran talks to Huw about one of the most significant mediums of 19th century Spiritualism, and what his life and reputation can tell us about gender and sexuality in high society at the time. ----more---- SOURCES: Heyday of a Wizard - Jean Burton The First Psychic - Peter Lamont Experiences in Spiritualism with DD Home - Viscount Adare ‘Very hot indeed’: Intimacy between men in Experiences in Spiritualism with Mr. D.
