Beschreibung

For the first time, the collected papers in this volume present an introduction to the history of women, of men, and eunuchs--or the third sex--in Byzantium, and to the various theoretical and methodological approaches through which the topic can be examined. The contributors use evidence from both written documents and various artwork to offer a broad picture of the place of women and Byzantine society and the perceptions of women held by that society. "Women, Men and Eunuchs" offers a unique and valuable exploration of the issue of gender in Byzantium, which will fascinate anyone interested in ancient and medieval history and gender studies.
