Více o knize
Exploring the complexities of gender identity in ancient Greek culture, this collection of essays examines the male psyche's struggle to reconcile nature and culture, as well as the distinctions between body and soul, and masculinity and femininity. Through the lens of Tiresias, a figure emblematic of this tension, the author challenges traditional notions of virility and femininity, advocating for a more inclusive understanding of gender that transcends rigid boundaries found in classical discourse. The work draws on epic narratives and Socratic thought to highlight these themes.
