Description
Sheds new light on how masculinity was understood, lived, performed and viewed during a period of huge change.
Premodern masculinity was multivalent and dynamic, a series of intersecting, conflicting, and mutating identities that nevertheless were distinct and recognizable to people and their societies. The articles collected here examine a variety of means by which masculinity was constructed, deconstructed, and transformed across time, geographies, and cultures. Articles range across the twelfth to seventeenth century, from western Europe to the Volga-Ural region, from the Christian west to the Muslim east, from Ottomans to Mongols and Persians, from Baudri of Bourgeuil to Blaise de Monluc; while topics include the chivalric hero, the effeminate zerbino, beards, and spurs, represented variously in literature, historical documents, art and opera. Finally, in that period of great transformation that is the sixteenth century, they show how masculinity moved away from the traditional and recognizable to become something different and distinct from its premodern expressions.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
