Book Synopsis Christianity and the Contest for Manhood in Late Antiquity by : Nathan D. Howard
Book excerpt: By exploring gender and identity in fourth-century Cappadocia, where bishops used a rhetoric of contest to align with classical Greek masculinity, this book contributes to discussions about how gender, identity formation, and materiality shaped episcopal office and theology in late antiquity.
