<br/><br/> "Men's studies is still in its infancy. This rich collection of articles allows the reader ot experiment with various historial paradigms and interpretive models. But the subjects of our concern had few choices. In antiquity, gender roles were proscribed, and deviations from them were severely punished. One conclusion may be drawn from all the contributions: as a social system Patriarchy exercises implacable authority over men as well as women. <br/>Wehn Men Were Men, prefaced by Sarah Pomeroy, employs a variety of critical approaches and methodologies and focueses on a broad range of source materials, periods and places to offer an innovative and challening study of masculine dominance in the classical world."--
