The Masculine Masquerade: Masculinity And Representation

3.8/5 ( ratings)

This text explores often-ignored issues of masculinity in the visual arts as well as models and concepts of masculinity in literature, film and the mass media. Drawing on the work of feminist and gay studies and the work being done in psychology, sociology, and gender studies, the essays analyze the conventional and limited definition of masculinity as a social and cultural construct. They seek to expand that definition to include multiple masculinities and factors such as race, class, ethnicity and object choice.
