A couple of months ago two volume Encyclopedia of Erotic Literature,
edited by by Gaetan Brulotte and John Phillips was published by
Routledge.
ISBN-10: 1579584411
ISBN-13 9781579584412

It's interesting that the article about Alexander Pushkin (pages
1059-1060) is fully devoted to the "Secret Journal 1836-1837"
published by Mikhail Armalinsky. Not a single word about Pushkin's
other erotic works.
Here is the ending of this article:
"If the Secret Journal is proven to be authentic, it would cast a
different light on its illustrious author, perhaps unfavorably
altering his image. More importantly, Pushkin scholarship would have
to be reevaluated and revised by accepting the journal in the
literary canon, lending it a postmodern dimension, and thereby
keeping his works fresh. Pushkin, long considered an innovator and a
visionary, would have again influence literary discourse."
