Blame it on the Gender: Identities and transgressions in Antiquity (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781407357348)

Blame it on the Gender offers a multidisciplinary approach to gender studies in Antiquity, containing contributions by international scholars on different ancient geographical contexts where gender and gender relations can be studied. From the Iron Age in northern Spain to Roman Late Antiquity, this volume revises our understanding of people's life in the past. It offers a critical analysis of previous methodological approaches and suggests new techniques. The various contributors discuss gender misconceptions repeated in scholarship over the last few decades and emphasise the need for researchers to consider gender in their own studies. Each contribution offers a recent bibliography for further reading and the chapters cover different masculinities, gender stereotypes, women, and new approaches in archaeology as well as in history, literature, and epigraphy.
