Unheroic conduct : the rise of heterosexuality and the invention of the Jewish man

Boyarin, Daniel1997
Book
Offering an alternative to the Euroamerican warrior/patriarch model of masculinity, this text explores the Jewish ideal of the gentle receptive male. Analyzing ancient and modern texts, it reveals early rabbis - studious, family-oriented - as exemplars of manhood and objects of female desire.
