In Female Masculinity Judith Halberstam takes aim at the protected status of male masculinity and shows that female masculinity has offered a distinct alternative to it for well over two hundred years. In this first full-length study on the subject, Halberstam catalogues the diversity of gender expressions among masculine women from nineteenth-century pre-Iesbian practices to contemporary drag king performances.Through detailed textual readings as well as empirical research, Halberstam uncovers a hidden history of female masculinities while arguing for a more nuanced understanding of gender categories that would incorporate rather than pathologize them. She rereads Anne Lister's diaries and Radclyffe Hall's The Well of Loneliness as foundational assertions of female masculine identity. She considers the enigma of the stone butch and the politics surrounding butch/femme ro

Since its first publication in this country, Yohanan Aharoni's informative, fact-filled work has been a prime source in its field. Now considerably enlarged, and with both text and maps updated, this classic study offers an even more accurate description of the geography, history, and archeology of Palestine. The Land of the Bible is an essential textbook that will continue to serve both scholars and students for years to come.

Not illustrated. 1889 Excerpt: ...Aber das ist ein Irrthum. Durch seinen Kahlkopf, den er zuweilen mit so einer weißen Nebelkappe bedeckt, giebt er sich zwar den Anstrich von Philiströsität; aber wie bei manchen andern großen Deutschen, geschieht es aus purer Ironie. Es ist sogar notorisch, daß der Brocken seine burschikosen, phantastischen Zeiten hat, z. B. die erste Mainacht. Dann wirft er seine Nebelkappe jubelnd in die Lüfte, und wird, eben so gut wie wir Uebrigen, recht echtdeutsch romantisch verrückt. Ich suchte gleich die schöne Dame in ein Gespräch zu vers flechten: denn Naturschönheiten genießt man erst recht, wenn man sich auf der Stelle darüber aussprechen kann. Sie war nicht geistreich, aber aufmerksam sinnig. Wahrhaft vzrnehme Formen. Ich meine nicht die gewöhnliche, steife, negative Vornehmheit, die genau weiß, was unterlassen werden muß; w sondern jene seltnere, freie, positive Vornehmheit, die uns genau sagt, was wir thun dürfen, und die uns, bei aller Unbefangenheit, die höchste gesellige Sicherheit giebt.

Manche Stadt konnte ich nicht finden, vielleicht weil ich mehr mit den Fingern suchte, als mit den Augen, die sich unterdessen auf dem 20 Gesicht der holden Dame orientirten, und dort schönere Partien fanden, als „Schierke" und „Elend." Dieses Gesicht gehörte zu denen, die nie reizen, selten entzücken, und immer gefall...
