Exploring the resurgence of androgyny as a literary ideal, this book addresses the complexities surrounding its representation, including gender inequality and identity concerns faced by artists. It critiques previous models while offering a fresh theoretical perspective that views androgyny as a dialogized consciousness reflecting male-female interactions. By framing androgyny as a rhetorical embodiment of sexual and gendered differences, the work aims to enhance existing theories and readings, appealing to scholars in Literary Criticism and those interested in gender dynamics in art and society.
