This study examines and contextualizes key discourses of ancient Greek masculinity in the five 'ideal' Greek novels. Using modern theories of the 'performance' of gender, Jones argues that many of the novels' men depend very much on the maintenance of their image before others - that they are conscious of 'playing the man'.
