description: The seven papers published here were originally presented at a conference/exhibition at the Georgia Museum of Art in 1997, entitled Jupiter's Loves and his Children . The study of masculinity in art is a subject in its infancy, but Jupiter provides a useful starting point for such a study, being King of the pagan gods and father to many a mortal man. The essays within this volume look at a number of facades of masculinity as well as the female response to male sexual attention.
