Recreating Japanese Men examines a broad range of attitudes regarding properly masculine pursuits and modes of behavior. It charts breakdowns in traditional and conventional societal roles and the resulting crises of masculinity. Contributors address key questions about Japanese manhood ranging from icons such as the samurai to marginal men including hermaphrodites, robots, techno-geeks, rock climbers, shop clerks, soldiers, shoguns, and more. In addition to bringing historical evidence to bear on definitions of masculinity, contributors provide fresh analyses on the ways contemporary modes and styles of masculinity have affected Japanese men's sense of gender as authentic and stable. 606 $aMen$zJapan$xIdentity 606 $aMasculinity$zJapan 606 $aMen$zJapan 606 $aSex role$zJapan 606 $aGender & Ethnic Studies$2HILCC 606 $aSocial Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aGender Studies & Sexuality$2HILCC 615 0$aMen$xIdentity. 615 0$aMasculinity 615 0$aMen 615 0$aSex role 615 7$aGender & Ethnic Studies 615 7$aSocial Sciences 615 7$aGender Studies & Sexuality 676 $a305.38/895600903 702 $aFru?hstu?ck$b Sabine 702 $aWalthall$b Anne 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911103352503321 996 $aRecreating Japanese men$94741395 997 $aUNINA
