iii, 1901). [67] See Justi's _Life of Winkelmann_, and also Moll's _Die Kontraere Sexualempfindung_, third edition, 1899, pp.
122-126.
In this work, as well as in Raffalovich's _Uranisme et Unisexualite_, as also in Moll's _Beruehmte Homosexuelle_ (1910) and Hirschfeld's _Die Homosexualitaet_, p. 650 et seq., there will be found some account of many eminent men who are, on more or less reliable grounds, suspected of homosexuality.
Other German writers brought forward as inverted are Platen, K.P.Moritz, and Iffland. Platen was clearly a congenital invert, who sought, however, the satisfaction of his impulses in Platonic friendship; his homosexual poems and the recently published unabridged edition of his diary render him an interesting object of study; see for a sympathetic account of him, Ludwig Frey, "Aus dem Seelenleben des Grafen Platen," _Jahrbuch fuer sexuelle Zwischenstufen_, vols.
