In this original work, Stone studies the structure and social
presuppositions of several narratives from the Deuteronomistic
History in which sexual activity plays a significant role. 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.>
