Stabile, Carol A. 2014-02-04T00:03:05Z 2014-02-04T00:03:05Z 2014 DOI: 10.1177/1527476413488457 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/13627 15 pages Although most massively multiplayer online games (MMOs) remain entrenched in a binary system of gendered avatars, the limited representational framework of avatar creation is only one among many different strategies for what sociologists refer to as “doing gender.” This essay explores how a doing gender approach might be useful for analyzing the interactive dimensions of gender play in the rich communicative environments of MMOs. Specifically, this essay explores how players do (or do not) hold one another accountable to sex category membership through their interactions, in so doing either reproducing or resisting normative forms of gender. A doing gender approach, I argue, holds out the promise of being held accountable to a different set of rules for doing gender—of doing gender differently or, in a more utopian sense, perhaps doing away with it altogether. en_US Sage Publications Creative Commons BY-NC-SA avatars and agents feminism fandom queer virtual worlds video games “I Will Own You”: Accountability in Massively Multiplayer Online Games Article

The contents include: low resolution images of the most important inscriptions; supplementary studies in civic patronage that were deemed too marginal or too speculative for the print version; a database including all or most patrons of communities, the communities, benefactions, and references to standard scholarly publications like PIR or RE. This database has been broken down into several segments. In its entirety it is too large for standard monitors. As posted this database is a 'read-only' PDF. Also available on request is an Excel spreadsheet that can be manipulated and sorted to address particular questions. en_US http://www.brill.com/products/book/civic-patronage-roman-empire urn:isbn:9789004214668 rights_reserved Rome -- History -- Empire, 30 B.C.-284 A.D.
