The careers of two popular secondcentury rhetorical virtuosos offer Maud Gleason fascinating insights into the ways ancient Romans constructed masculinity during a time marked by anxiety over manly deportment Declamation was an exhilarating art form for the Greeks and bilingual Romans of the Second Sophistic movement and its best practitioners would travel the empire performing in front of enraptured audiences The mastery of rhetoric marked the transition to manhood for all aristocratic citizens and remained crucial to a mans social standing In treating rhetoric as a process of selfpresentation in a facetoface society Gleason analyzes the deportment and writings of the two SophistsFavorinus a eunuch and Polemo a man who met conventional gender expectationsto suggest the ways character and gender were perceivedPhysiognomical texts of the era show how intently men scrutinized one another for minute signs of gender deviance in such features as gait gesture facial expression and voice Rhetoricians trained to develop these traits in a masculine fashion Examining the successful career of Favorinus whose highpitched voice and florid presentation contrasted sharply with the traditionalist style of Polemo Gleason shows however that ideal masculine behavior was not a monolithic abstraction In a highly accessible study treating the semiotics of deportment and the medical cultural and moral issues surrounding rhetorical activity she explores the possibilities of selfpresentation in the search for recognition as a speaker and a man.
