Thank you! Both those books are on my list from cherry-picking the bibliography to Lisa Duggan's Sapphic Slashers: Sex, Violence, and American Modernity (Duke UP, 2000), a book which is radically misrepresented by its (terrible) title,* but I am very glad to have confirmation.
And I completely understanding wanting to stay as far away from Ripperology as you can. It's fun to watch as an uninvested spectator, but it would be a nightmare to approach professionally as a historian. Kind of like the "Authorship Question."
