This collection considers themes of Christology, patriarchy, violence, colonialism, family structures, and sexual practices as it explores the construction and performance of masculinity in the New Testament and related early Christian texts. Examining the Gospels, Romans, the Pastorals,
Revelation, and the Shepherd of Hermas, it situates diverse masculinities within a Greco-Roman matrix and introduces biblical scholarship to a rich vein of classical scholarship on gender. The contributors include Janice Capel Anderson, David J. A. Clines, Colleen M. Conway, Mary Rose D'Angelo, Page duBois, Chris Frilingos, Jennifer A. Glancy, Maud W. Gleason, Stephen D. Moore, Jerome H. Neyrey, Seong Hee Kim, Jeffrey L. Staley, Diana M. Swancutt, Tat-siong Benny Liew and Eric Thurman.
Paperback edition is available from the Society of Biblical Literature (www.sbl-site.org).
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'Moore and Capel Anderson provide a valuable service to the New Testament scholarly community by gathering a thought-provoking and fairly wide-ranging set of articles on masculinity, which has been an area of intense recent activity in many disciplines and is beginning to have an impact on study of the New Testament...This is a stimulating collection that should lead to further fruitful work.'
Peter Oakes, Journal for the Study of the New Testament, 2005.
