Un-Roman Sex delves into the complex tapestry of gender and sexual perceptions and representations that existed beyond the Mediterranean heartland of the Roman Empire. This comprehensive volume critically examines the gender constructs and sexual behaviors in the provinces and frontiers, shedding light on recent studies of Roman erotic experiences and fluid gender identities. At its core, it challenges the unquestioned extension of the traditional Romano-Hellenistic model to these regions, prompting a deeper exploration of the unique dynamics of sexual relations and gender identities.
The 11 chapters within this volume offer a diverse and multifaceted perspective, drawing upon literary, epigraphic, and archaeological evidence to provide a balanced and comprehensive view of the subject. Through their contributions, the authors present fresh and innovative ideas about sex, gender, and sexuality in the Roman provinces, contributing to our understanding of this complex and fascinating period.
Un-Roman Sex is a valuable resource for higher-level undergraduates and graduates/academics specializing in the Roman Empire, gender, and sexuality in the ancient world, as well as those interested in the dynamics of cultural negotiation and syncretism at the Roman frontiers. Its insights and analysis will undoubtedly enrich our understanding of the multifaceted and ever-evolving world of gender and sexuality in the ancient Mediterranean.
