Alternative ai costumi sessuali all’interno ed al di fuori del vincolo matrimoniale: eunuchi ed immaginario sessuale Pio Di Cosmo, Antonio eunuchs manhood casti viri hendiadys men / woman taboo eunuchi virililtà casti viri endiadi uomo / donna tabù This contribution analyzes a cognitive methodology and takes to the system the presence of the eunuchs, also focuses the development of manhood’s idea in the Byzantine culture. It recognizes basic problems concerning the representation of manhood, as cognitive codes, that revises the idea of the ‘complete’ man, compared to the neutered man. This research uses the anthropological knowledges referred to the epistemic categories of sociology and puts those in relation to the work of doctrine. Therefore, it examines the problems concerning the representation of homus byzantinus and femina byzantina adverse the eunuchs. In this way, it scrutinizes the differences of genders adverse the sexual capacity of the eunuchs, which models concrete perception of a tertium genus.  Questo contributo analizza un metodo cognitivo per ricondurre a sistema la presenza degli eunuchi e discerne dello sviluppo dell’idea della virilità nella cultura bizantina. Si vogliono annoverare i problemi-base concernenti la rappresentazione della mascolinità, quali codici cognitivi utili a revisionare una certa idea dell’uomo ‘completo’ rispetto ai castrati. Questa ricerca applica le conoscenze in materia antropologica correlate alle categorie epistemiche della sociologia e le riconduce al lavoro di sistematizzazione della dottrina; si concludono così le questioni circa i problemi di rappresentazione dell’homus byzantinus e della femina byzantina rispetto all’eunuco. In questo modo, si approfondiscono le diversità di genere avverso la capacità sessuale degli eunuchi, che modellano la concreta percezione di un tertium genus.  Facultad de Filosofía y Letras, Universidad de Buenos Aires 2018-08-10 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares application/pdf http://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/afc/article/view/6147 10.34096/afc.v2i31.6147 Anales de Filología Clásica; Vol. 2 Núm. 31 (2018): Entre castidad y lujuria: sexo y amor en Bizancio, parte II.
