PAPERBACK, heavy pencil underlining on about 16 of first 28 pages, thereafter reader gave up, corners bumped, still quite usable reading copy. MOSSE, GEORGE L. The image of man: the creation of modern masculinity. New York: Oxford University Press, 1998, 232pp., . Cover design by Francine Kass. Studies in the history of sexuality. - In The Image of Man, noted historian George L. Mosse provides the first historical account of the masculine stereotype in modern Western culture, tracing the evolution of the idea of manliness to reveal how it came to embody physical beauty, courage, moral restraint, and a strong will. This stereotype, he finds, originated in the tumultuous changes of the eighteenth century, as Europe's dominant aristocrats grudgingly yielded to the rise of the professional, bureaucratic, and commercial middle classes. Mosse reveals how the new bourgeoisie, faced with a bewildering, rapidly industrialized world, latched onto the knightly ideal of chivalry. And he shows how the rise of universal conscription created a soldierly man as an ideal type. In England, the nineteenth century gave rise to an educational system that emphasized athletics, team sports, and physical strength, as did the gymnastics movement on the continent. At the same time, ideals of a standard of masculine beauty developed throughout the continent, intertwined with theories of art and personal comportment. Indeed, in the nineteenth century, the idea of manliness appeared in so many areas of life and thought that it was accepted as a social constant, a permanent endowment granted by nature. Mosse shows, however, that it continued to evolve, particularly in contrast to stereotypes of women and unmanly men - Jews and homosexuals - all considered weak and fearful, unable to control their passions. Mosse concludes that socialism also made use of this stereotype, while in the twentieth century Fascism took this process to its extremes - mass political rallies glorified the fearless storm trooper as outsiders were stigmatized and persecuted. 9780195126600 ISBN 0195126602. …

ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1911). 1911 1st edition. 8vo (165 x 227mm). Pp284 + 4pp advertisements. B/w photograph plates. Green cloth, spine titled in black. Prize book-plate, some foxing and wear. Good. Recollections of travel over five continents. Chapter 8 "The Fisherman's Mercator" includes fishing in North America and elsewhere. "There is a discrepancy between the contents of this volume and the promise of its title, which may seem to lay me open to the charge of inveigling the reader under false pretences, so I hasten to admit that such commonplace travel as has fallen to my lot during the past twenty years is obviously foreign to what Rudyard Kipling had in mind when he wrote what for me is the most inspiring couplet in all his verse. It is in the spirit, rather than in the letter, that I have obeyed that ringing summons, and my tourist trails over five continents must seem hackneyed ground indeed to those who take their travel seriously." (from the author's preface). Chapters include:- Travel as an education; The reform of the tourist; A grumbler in the train; The voyage; Cakes and ale; The high places; The voice of the mosquito; The fisherman's mercator; Native servants in many lands; The morning bathe; Rivers running to their goal; Sunshine and shadow of travel. .…
