Exploring the complexities of Greek masculinity, the book delves into the collective psyche that grapples with the distinctions between nature and culture, body and soul, and gender roles. Through essays centered on the figure of Tiresias, who was blinded after witnessing Athena, the author challenges traditional notions of virility and femininity. By examining epic narratives and Socratic thought, it advocates for a more inclusive understanding of gender that blurs the rigid boundaries typically upheld in official discourse.
