Male Femininities
Innovative essays that explore how men perform femininity and what femininity looks like without women What counts as “male femininity”? Is it simply men behaving in effeminate ways or is it the absence of masculinity? Male Femininities presents a nuanced, critical collection of essays that highlight the extent to which male femininities are neither an imitation of femaleness nor an emptying of masculinity. These innovative essays focus on both gay and straight men, and transmasculine and genderqueer people in their construction and performance of femininity, thereby revealing the possibilities that open up when we critically examine femininity without women. Male Femininities asks, What...

Under Construction
Die Publikation widmet sich dem Wandel von Männlichkeit(en), den Bildende Künstler:innen seit den 1970er Jahren und aktuell mehr denn je verhandeln. Die vielfältigen künstlerischen Prozesse, in denen die Vorstellung von Männlichkeit als scheinbar universale, unumstößliche Konstante sukzessiv durch die Annahme einer Pluralität von Männlichkeiten abgelöst wird, beleuchten die kunst- und kulturwissenschaftlichen Beiträge des Bandes in vier Sektionen: Postphallische Männlichkeit, Queering Masculinities, Optimierte Männlichkeit(en) und Verletzlichkeit. Ausgehend von der Prämisse, dass Männerkörper keinen intrinsischen Wesenskern besitzen, sondern sozial konstruiert und somit transformierbar sind, werden Visionen zukünftiger Männlichkeit(en) diskutiert und greifbar gemacht.
