This article appeared in the May 1996 issue of Postmodern Culture and is still archived at PMC. If you would like to know why I reposted it at this site, go here Male Pro-Feminism and the Masculinist Gigantism of Gravity's Rainbow Wes Chapman Illinois Wesleyan University P.O. Box 2900 Bloomington, IL 61702-2900 wchapman@titan.iwu.edu The title of Tania Modleski's Feminism Without Women refers, Modleski explains, to a confluence of two political/intellectual trends: the subsumption of feminism within a "more comprehensive" field of gender studies, accompanied by the rise of a "male feminist perspective that excludes women," and the dominance within feminist thought of an "anti-essentialism so radical that every use of the term 'woman,' however 'provisionally' it is adopted, is disallowed" (14-15). The two trends are linked, Modleski argues, because "the rise of gender studies is linked to, and often depends for its justification on, the tendendency within poststructuralist thought to dispute notions of identity and the subject" (15). These trends are troubling for Modleski because she fears that, insofar as gender studies tend to decenter women as the subjects of feminism, they may be not a "new phase" in feminism but rather feminism's "phase-out" (5). My concern in this essay is with male-authored work on gender of the type identified by Modleski, and in particular with its intersections with anti-essentialism (which, for the purposes of this essay, I will define broadly as the belief that gender is socially constructed). Although not all male-authored gender criticism by men is radically anti-essentialist

Ask a Pro Donald Maass, Literary Agent An independent New York literary agent with eighteen years of experience, Donald Maass is the founder and president of the Donald Maass Literary Agency, which represents over 100 novelists, including such award-winning authors as mystery writer Anne Perry, science fiction writer Christopher Priest, cartoonist Chris Browne ( Hägar the Horrible ) and the estate of Pulitzer Prize winner MacKinlay Kantor ( Andersonville Mr. Maass is himself the author of fourteen pseudonymous novels, including four Nancy Drew mysteries. He has also written The Career Novelist: A Literary Agent Offers Strategies for Success . He is a member of: The Author's Guild, Mystery Writers of America, Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, Horror Writers of America, Women Writing the West, and is Vice-President of the literary branch of the Association of Authors' Representatives. The questions below were submitted by various members of the Internet Chapter (IC). IC:   Do you handle paperback originals? DM:   Yes. Original paperback publication has long been common in the romance, science fiction and western fields. In recent years, some authors in the mystery field have also made successful starts in paperback. Original paperback is not for everyone, though. Mainstream and literary fiction, which depend heavily on reviews, probably need the added boost of hardcover.

sLgTgRedirStr = ""; document.write( ''); document.write( ''); THE NFL ISN'T GETTING OLDER, IT'S GETTING BETTER. Joe Gibbs is back in town, and the Writers' Bloc is all atwitter. Everything that was old is new, hope is in the air and Redskins' uber-fan Tom Friend is smiling for the first time in years. But there's a dark cloud on the horizon for Patrick Hruby, who wonders if Gibbs can pull his hometown 'Skins up before the athletic black hole that is Washington D.C. can pull him down. Best story of the year From Tom Friend I'm going to tell you why this Joe Gibbs hire is the best sports story of the year (OK, it's only Jan. 9, but seriously  ). Because it's corny. We've never been able to count on our players, count on our coaches. Because they've never really been ours, have they? Lombardi didn't finish his career coaching the Packers, Stengel didn't finish with the Yankees. Parcells is a football whore: He leaves the Giants, coaches the other New York team, then coaches the rival Cowboys. Shame on his ass. If I'm a Giants fan, I disown him. With players, it's understandable your career is short, get your money while you can. But with coaches, especially the great ones, you'd hope they'd stay true to you; you'd hope they'd bridge a couple of generations. Well, that's what Joe Gibbs did this week. He could've coached Atlanta, where he was a minority owner, and he could've coached Carolina years before that. But he was too loyal to the Redskins fans, too loyal to D.C. Said so yesterday.

sLgTgRedirStr = ""; document.write( ''); document.write( ''); ARE NFL COACHES THE MOST OVERRATED EMPLOYEES ON THE PLANET? NFL head coaches. They're the real stars of the game. They get more face time, more ink, more credit and more respect than MVPs and record-setters. Is there a bigger supernova in today's NFL than Bill Parcells (only Brett Favre is even in the same galaxy)? Was there a bigger hero in the history of the game than Vince Lombardi (only Joe Montana and maybe Jim Brown are even in the same sentence)? Was there a bigger genius in sports history than Bill Walsh, who invented everything worthwhile about pro football that George Halas and Paul Brown somehow missed? Even the losers like Jim Fassel, who presided over a team that went from preseason Super Bowl contenders to the game's biggest duds this season are better-known, better-covered and better-loved than any players on their teams. (In fact, Fassel, despite ending the 2003 season on an eight-game losing streak, is now the hottest coaching prospect in the game. But that's a Writers' Bloc for another time.) The question is: Do NFL coaches deserve all the credit they are getting? Today's WB looks at this phenomenon and offers a strong opinion. Hint: Our opinion is NOT yes.

Big mistake. Within two years he was divorced, broke, and living in a van down by the river. He drove cabs and tended bar in New York, taught school in New Orleans, drove tractor-trailers in North Carolina and California, worked on oil rigs in Louisiana, picked fruit in Washington State, and in general worked all the jobs that writers work when they're running away from writing. Somewhere in here he completed three novels, none of which saw the light of publication. When the last one crashed and burned, in New York in 1980, Mr. Pressfield was faced with a choice between hanging himself and bolting for Tinseltown. The coin came up heads. So (as Newman once said of Kramer on Seinfeld "he packed a grip and split for the Coast." Over the next fifteen years, Mr. Pressfield wrote or co-wrote 34 screenplays, several of which got made into extremely forgettable movies. (Mr. Pressfield refuses to name them.) He did, however, finally succeed in turning pro as a writer and actually paying the rent. (He detailed these experiences in 2002 in "The War of Art.")

MIKE MENTZER by Garry Bartlett Garry has covered the professional bodybuilding scene as a photo journalist for the past 25 years, and his work has been published in just about every bodybuilding publication in the U.S., Germany, England, and Canada. He currently has a monthly column in Musclemag International. Following is an introduction written by Garry and his tribute to Mike Mentzer on the second anniversary of his death. I grew up on a farm in a small rural community on the East Coast of Canada, and back in the late 60's, weight training and bodybuilding were a mystery. In fact, I knew very few people who knew what it even was. However, I religiously followed the courses and never missed a workout. I bought every bodybuilding magazine available and read each issue from cover to cover, dreaming of the day that I would strut my stuff on the sunny beaches of Santa Monica with the current champs of the time. In reality, the cold harsh winters of New Brunswick, Canada were a far cry from sunny California. Eventually, I moved to a city with a population of fifty thousand and began training at the local YMCA. One day while on my way to the gym I spied a small poster that read: 1975 New Brunswick Bodybuilding Championships. Encouraged by my wife and friends, I decided to compete, which set the wheels in motion for a career and adventure that would change my life forever! (I thought.)

Born: Died: Oct. 10, 2001 Induction: Eddie Futch Eddie Futch, who finally retired from boxing in 1998 at age 87, is not only one of the greatest trainers in boxing, but one of the sport's true gentlemen. Born in Hillsboro, Mississippi in 1911, Futch moved to Detroit as a child. It is there that he excelled in athletics, including basketball and boxing. In 1932, Futch won the Detroit Athletic Assn. Lightweight championship and a year later the Detroit Golden Gloves. At the Brewster Recreation Center gym, Futch became friends with the local light heavyweight sensation named Joe Louis. The future all-time great often asked Futch to spar with him, saying, "If I can hit you, I know I'm sharp." A heart murmur prevented Futch from turning pro, but he soon began training local amateurs and later pro fighters. Futch, like fellow Hall of Fame trainer, Ray Arcel, left the sport for more than a decade. But he returned in the 1950s and guided Don Jordan to the welterweight championship in 1958. He eventually worked with champions Bob Foster, Joe Frazier, Ken Norton, Alexis Arguello, Marlon Starling, Virgil Hill, Wayne McCullough, Michael Spinks, Larry Holmes, and Riddick Bowe.

Subscribe "Dulce Et Decorum Est" A Literary Writer's Point of View By Mika Teachout "Dulce Et Decorum Est" A poem by Wilfred Owen (1893-1918) History has taught us that no other war challenged existing conventions, morals, and ideals in the same way World War I did. World War I saw the mechanization of weapons (heavy artillery, tanks), the use of poison gas, the long stalemate on the Western Front, and trench warfare, all of which resulted in the massive loss of human life. "We must remember not only that the battle casualties of World War I were many times greater than those of World War II, wiping out virtually a whole generation of young men and shattering so many illusions and ideals; but also that people were wholly unprepared for the horrors of modern trench warfare. World War I broke out on a largely innocent world, a world that still associated warfare with glorious cavalry charges and the noble pursuit of heroic ideals" (Norton Anthology of English Literature, Fifth Edition, 1891). A handful of poets, including Wilfred Owen, participated in the war, fought in the war, and some like Owen, died in the war. The poetry of these "war poets", as they are later termed, shows a first-hand account of the brutality and the devastation of war in a world which still believed that war was heroic and proud. Norton further tells us that
