Detail Muscle, ?Hard Men? and ?Iron? Mike Tyson: Reflections on Desire, Anxiety and the Embodiment of Masculinity Bibliografi Author: Jefferson, Tony Bahasa: (EN )     Penerbit: Unika Atma Jaya     Tahun Terbit: 2006     Jenis: Article Fulltext: 77BS41.pdf (200.0KB; 1 download) Abstract If, as Anthony Elliot argues, ?the [symbolic] law of the father triumphs over the loss of the maternal body? in the making of men, how is the masculine body possible? The answer would appear to be, on condition that it becomes implacably hard, disciplined, an object of work. On the other hand, excessive interest in the body, as in the case of bodybuilding, would appear also to betoken narcissism and femininity. Drawing on the notions of the ?hard man?, the significance of muscle, bodybuilding and the case of ?Iron? Mike Tyson, this article attempts to come to grips with the complex and contradictory relations among desire, anxiety and the embodiment of masculinity. Specifically, this entails focusing on the deconstruction of discourses relating to muscle and ?hardness?, and on how identifications with such discourses are made and sustained.
