J.M. Barrie was a photographer, author, and playwright most famous for creating the character Peter Pan.
The International Journal of Greek Love (IJGL) was a scholarly publication edited between January 1965 and November 1966 by J. Z. Eglinton, pseudonym of the famous numismatist and boy-lover Walter Breen. According to the blurb inside the journal, IJGL is a "quarterly devoted to literary, historical, sociological, psychological and related studies centered around the phenomenon of Greek love, defined as the love between man and adolescent boy."
Boarding schools are schools with dormitories where pupils live during the term. Boarding schools have long been considered as hot-beds of sexual activity among students, or sometimes between students and teachers and over the course of history, semi-pornographic novels from The adventures of a schoolboy (1866) to The boys of Swithins hall (1999) have only reinforced this notion. While sexual contact between boys in boarding schools is often being regarded in terms of "situational homosexuality", a close examination of the nature and social context of these contacts reveals it had more to do with pederasty or boy-love than situational homosexuality.
