Both narratological and anthropological tools are utilized in the textual analysis. Stone interestingly notes the link between sexual activity, gender and prestige structures; the emphasis on male contest and female chastity discussed by anthropologists of honour and shame; and the role of the exchange of women in relations between men. In each story, sexual practice is primarily related to male struggles for honour and power.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45086277370007,"sku":"9781850756408","price":15522.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781850756408.webp?v=1767638943","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sex-honor-and-power-in-the-deuteronomistic-history-9781850756408","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
