Edward Perry Warren

Born in Massachusetts the year ABRAHAM LINCOLN was elected the 16th President, Edward Warren lived the life of privilege. His father founded the successful Cumberland Paper Mills in Maine.

He received his B.A. from Harvard College in 1883 and later earned an M.S in Classics at Oxford, (that school was more tolerant of his homosexuality).

At Oxford he met archaeologist John Marshall, a younger man he called "Puppy," with whom he formed a close and long-lasting relationship that lasted until Marshall's death in 1928.

Edward Warren is very important to our understanding of LGBT history. At that time, the turn of the 20^th century all same sex references were being wiped out of histories. Much was lost forever. Then came Warren who collected “ancient pornography”. Vases, statues, cups almost anything that showed two men having sex!

In 1900 Warren published The Prince who did not Exist, a small edition art book from the Merrymount Press showing some of his collection.

Under the pen name of Arthur Lyon Raile, Warren wrote several books on the subject of gay love, including Itamos (1903), and The Defence of Uranian Love (1928). These were pioneering works on a subject that was “forbidden”.

They lived in Lewes house, in Sussex. Edward, so the rumor went in town, was a collector of fine art and young men. He is considered one of the most extraordinary figures in the world of art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Warren is perhaps best known for owning a 1^st century silver cup known as the “Warren Cup”. The cup clearly shows two male couples having sex!

In early Greek culture, it was common place for two men of equal rank to be in a same sex relationship and have sex.

In the latter Roman society it was looked on as normal only as long as the “penetrative partner” was of a higher social class or a much older man.

The cup shows one equal couple, Greek style, and one in the later Roman style. These bits of our history are preserved only because of a few collectors like Warren, could get by with saving them. 

 

Only the very rich and privileged were afforded the right to preserve such things even if they were not “fit for public display”.
