Beyond the Ivory Tower
by Finn Davis
we break down complex and esoteric issues and concepts so that anyone can understand and argue their point. We will discuss philosophy, classical history, modern history, literature, current events, and a shitton more of stuff I haven’t really thought of yet. I’m Finn Davis, an undergrad student at Middlebury, a Little Ivy in Vermont, and I’m your host.

Be A Man (a Deconstruction of Modern Masculinity)
This episode is about modern masculinity through the lens of Gender Theory. Today we’ll be using Michael Kimmel’s Guyland, which I’m not personally a fan of, but it has some ideas that are useful for this analysis, John Alberti’s “I Love You Man: Bromances, the Construction of Masculinity, and the Continuing Evolution of the Romantic Comedy”, Joan Brumberg’s The Body Project, Ron Eglash’s Race, Sex, and Nerds, Abby Ferber’s The Construction of Black Masculinity, Richard Giulianotti’s Gender Identities and Sexuality in Sport, and oddly enough, Austin Osman Spare, an occultist from the early 20th century.The following is an opinion piece on modern masculinity using the rhetorical skills I’ve learned in my Gender Studies class I’ve just wrapped up.
