This course will offer an overview over a relatively little investigated “third voice” in the history of ideas: man-hating (misandry, viriphobia). In the focus of our investigation will be Central Europe (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Croatia) in the second half of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century – the period that has largely influenced present day gender studies. As some would argue, misandry, though more covertly than misogyny, has always been present in the public discourse of our civilization. However, around the fin de siècle misogynistic discourse reached an apex: as an answer to it we have two different movements. The first is the widely known and investigated turn-of-the-century feminism lead to political and philosophico-cultural changes such as the improvement of women’s education, political rights, better paid work, intensifying discourse of the equality of sexes, equal human rights etc. The second is much less known – misandry, which regards the human male as constitutionally inferior to and morally more deficient than woman. In our course we will investigate this phenomenon from three perspectives: its history, its appearance, and its consequences on present state of gender roles.
