The Weird of the Wanderer
The mummy -- which is not less than nineteen hundred years old -- is that of a very handsome lad indeed, of about nineteen years of age, and most magnificently made. There is absolutely no trace of decay about it; and it looks as fresh and feels as soft (though of course it's cold) as the body of a young sleeper. Another curious thing about it is that it does not appear to have been eviscerated. . . .
Rolfe, Rose, Corvo, Crabbe
Frederick Rolfe wanted to influence how others see him both by his behaviour and his literary output. The biography The Quest for Corvo skewed the image he wanted to project. This work analyses the impression Rolfe attempted to create of himself in his fiction and discusses the image projected by his correspondence and the biographical work on him.
