Russian Masculinities iIn History and Culture

Peasant patriarchs, aristocratic dandies, anxious bureaucrats, workers seeking father-figures, and promiscuous bathhouse attendants populate this volume. Its essays examine how ideals of manliness intersected with historical developments, the formation of national identities, and changing definitions of intimacy. This book is essential reading for students and scholars of gender theory and Russian theory alike.
