&nbsp;[[Image:462px-Cscr-featured .png |20px|link=Portal:Featured articles]]&nbsp;The '''[[Encyclopedia of Homosexuality]]''' (1990) was edited by [[Wayne R. Dynes]], with the assistance of associate editors [[William A. Percy]], Warren Johansson, and Stephen Donaldson. It was published in two volumes by Garland Press in 1990. The Encyclopedia contains 770 articles. It was reviewed positively in Reference & User Services Quarterly and, at length, in the Journal of Homosexuality --- REFERENCE: Journal of Homosexuality Volume 21, Issue 4, 1991 --- . It was listed on several "best books of the year" lists. Originally published in 2 vols. (1484 p.) by Garland, New York, 1990, it is very positive on BoyLove. The editor Wayne Dynes was also on the board of [[Paidika: The Journal of Paedophilia|Paidika]]. Although a big hit as a reference book when it first appeared, protests from lesbians led the publisher to withdraw it and cease publishing it.

&nbsp;[[Image:462px-Cscr-featured .png |20px|link=Portal:Featured articles]] '''[[Hyacinth (mythology)|Hyacinth]]''' or Hyacinthus was one of [[Apollo]]'s male lovers. He was a Spartan prince, beautiful and athletic. The pair was practicing throwing the discus when a discus thrown by Apollo was blown off course by the jealous [[Zephyrus]] and struck Hyacinthus in the head, killing him instantly. Apollo is said to be filled with grief: out of Hyacinthus' blood, Apollo created a flower named after him as a memorial to his death, and his tears stained the flower petals. [[Hyacinth_(mythology)#The_Hyacinthia|The Festival of Hyacinthus]] (possibly held in the early to late Spring) was a Spartan celebration of his death and rebirth.
