How are men's sexualities played out in film, art, and comics? How do men work with femininities and women with masculinities? In what way does migration and religion interact in the cultivation of diasporic Muslim masculinities and alter social, cultural and familial relations? What is the relation between masculinities and disability? The ten chapters in the volume discuss the reconstruction of masculinities in and across particular times and cultural and geographic contexts. Each chapter sheds new light on the differences and complexities that constitute the making of masculinities in friendship and intimate relationships, religion, domestic violence, media, literature, and the arts. In highlighting the specificities of masculinities as they intersect with other coordinates of identity, the chapters collectively demonstrate how universalist models cannot accommodate for the diversities of gendered modes of being and becoming. The approach is interdisciplinary and international, and the authors draw on multiple research methodologies.

This book is Albert Spaldings work of "historic facts concerning the beginning, evolution, development and popularity of base ball, with personal reminiscences of its vicissitudes, its victories and its votaries." It is one of the defining books in the early formative years of modern baseball.

The works of art presented in this Bulletin were chosen from the Museum's collections to parallel or complement those shown in the exhibition Art Treasures of Turkey. The material is grouped in two sections: the first is devoted to objects made by people who lived in what we call Turkey, though they may have known it as Lydia or Byzantium or the Ottoman Empire. The second section is devoted to Western works that depict the Turks or imitate their art.
