Making Men: Sophists and Self-Presentation in Ancient Rome

Offers insights into the ways ancient Romans constructed masculinity during a time marked by anxiety over manly deportment. This book analyzes the deportment and writings of the two Sophists - Favorinus, a eunuch, and Polemo, a man who met conventional gender expectations - to suggest the ways character and gender were perceived.
