“After the Fall: Sex, Gender and Power” Graduate History Symposium, University of Toronto, 9-10 February 2007
The University of Toronto Graduate History Symposium, entitled “After the Fall: Sex, Gender, and Power”, has released its program for February 9th to 10th, 2007. Under discussant, Barbara Todd, I will be presenting my paper on Virtus among gladiators to a group composed of two Laurier students and a student from Harvard. The session is “Macho, Macho Man” and looks to be an engaging look at masculinity across the ages. The paper titles seem to encompass a great many things, and I’ll be particularly interested to hear Phyllis Thompson Reid’s paper on the masculinization of professional cooking.
