- Description
- View of Southeast Asian history that focuses on women’s roles and perceptions and ambiguities attached to femaleness in Southeast Asia. Andaya explores themes of the early modern era (1500–1800), such as the introduction of new religions, major economic shifts, changing patterns of state control, the impact of elite lifestyles and behavious. She examines the degree to which world religions have been instrumental in (re)constructing conceptions of gender and the effects of the expansion of long-distance trade, the incorporation of the region into a global trading network, the beginnings of cash-cropping and wage labour, and the increase in slavery on the position of women.

- Description
- The author describes how in the nineteenth century, when the differences between men and women were being made more explicit, religiosity was thought to be a ‘natural’ part of femininity whereas religious masculinity turned into an oddity. She explores how the gender differentiation was created among Belgian Catholics. She describes the extent to which religiosity was inscribed in these constructions and how religious teachings contributed to it.

- Description
- The book explores 'the Caster Semenya Case' from socio-cultural, ethical and legal perspectives. The South African athlete Caster Semynia (1991) won the 800m title at the 2009 World Championship and she was obliged to undergo gender testing and was for a time withdrawn from international competition. The book explores the ethics of how gender norms in sport, and in society more generally, are constructed through appearance, behaviour and sporting performance. It analyses the impact of standards in sports: the interrelationships between sport, culture, and the media: the link between mediacal sciences, society and gender: and includes discussion of key concepts, such as intersex, body norms and fairness. Contains the following articles: From Apartheid to segregation in sports: the transgressive body of Caster Mokgadi Semenya / Philippe Liotard : Gender verifications vs. anti-doping policies: sexed controls /Anaïs Bohuon and Eva Rodriguez : Unfair advantage and the myth of the level playing field in IAAF and IOC policies on hyperandrogenism: when is it fair to be a woman? / Silvia Camporesi and Paolo Maugeri : Categorizing and attributing the sex of individuals: history of the science, law and ethics / Aurélie Olivesi : Caster Semenya and the intersex hypothesis: on gender as the visual evidence of sex / Fabien Rose : From sports to science, rhetorical and power issues in the media coverage of Caster Semenya / Sandy Montanola : 'Caster Semenya - the ancients would have called her god' the international re-imagining and remaking of sex and the art of silence / Elaine Salo : Gender, silence, and a queer new world: Caster Semenya and unfixed ambiguity / John Sloop.

- Description
- In late antiquity Christian women used to bury the remains of saints and martyrs, sometimes on land the women themselves owned. The legends of these bone gatherers launch Denzey's investigation into the experiences of third- and fourth-century Roman women based on the visual and archeological evidence they left behind in the city's catacombs. Denzey explores what these women's lives were really like as the feminine ideal shifted from pagan Rome's devoted wives to Catholic Christianity's virgin martyrs. She also analyses Pope Damasus's impact on the masculinization of Rome's sacred space, the privatization of women's roles and the end of the female tradition of bone gathering.
