Description

Gender Reversals and Gender Cultures is a collection of specially commissioned essays offering cross-cultural and cross-historical analysis of gender reversal practices across societies. This scholarly work documents the universality of gender reversals through chapters spanning from early Christianity to contemporary times, examining how gender reversals connect to taboo, religious practice, and ritual activities. The book reveals how cultural attitudes toward gender reversal illuminate fundamental aspects of individual societies and their values. Edited by renowned scholars Anne Bolin of Elon College and Judith Ochshorn of the University of South Florida, this Routledge publication provides rigorous anthropological and historical perspectives on how gender-reversal practices function within diverse cultural contexts and what they communicate about broader social structures and beliefs.

Key Features

Gender Reversals and Gender Cultures presents cross-cultural analysis spanning from early Christian societies through modern times, documenting gender-reversal practices across historical periods.

The collection examines the relationship between gender reversals, taboo, and their roles in religious and ritual activities across different cultures.

Essays by Anne Bolin and Judith Ochshorn reveal how attitudes toward gender reversal serve as windows into understanding particular cultures' values and social systems.

Published by Routledge, this academic work combines anthropological fieldwork and historical research to explore universal patterns in gender-reversal behaviour.

The book demonstrates how gender reversals are embedded in cultural meaning-making, offering insights into the intersection of identity, ritual, and social organisation.
