Robert Hodges

Robert R. Hodges is a Professor of English at the English Department of the California State University. He is an authority on the life and oeuvre of Joseph Conrad, observing for instance in "Deep Fellowship" (Journal of Homosexuality, 1979) the multifarious homoerotic elements therein, and seeking thus to challenge the entrenched and enforced view of Conrad as a "heterosexual man's writer", an "established man's man of letters", "a literary heterosexual role model" and a "guardian of society's male mystique".
