title = "Virtue and invisibility: libertine variations on the myth of Gyges",
abstract = "In libertine fiction, lovers make the most of the invisibility provided by night-time. Echoing the Platonic myth of Gyges, these nocturnal scenes ask whether virtue demands only conformity to social expectations.
