Title
My Secret Life Vol 1 (1888)
Description
My Secret Life is the memoir of a Victorian gentleman's sexual development and experiences. It was first published in a private edition of eleven volumes, which appeared over seven years beginning around 1888. The work is anonymous but has been attributed by some to Henry Spencer Ashbee (1834-1900), though others argue against Ashbee as the author and one scholar suggests William Simpson Potter (1805-1879).  It is written in the first person and the narrator goes by the name of "Walter", though whether Walter was a real person, a fictional character, or a conglomerate is undetermined.  Likewise, it is unclear whether Walter represents the author.  Some argue that Ashbee is Walter, others that Walter is a composite character taken from experiences of Ashbee and his friends.  William Haywood (1821-1894) is also suggested as the identity of Walter.

Licensing

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
