'''''Manliness''''' is a book by [[conservative]]-leaning [[Harvard]] Professor Harvey Mansfield, who identifies and extols this trait which has been recognized since [[Ancient Greece]].

An entertaining read, the book is short on culture and [[American]] political history (except talks extensively about [[Teddy Roosevelt]]), while long in academic arguments based on literature.  Professor Mansfield points out that ''[[Macbeth]]'' contains [[Shakespeare]]'s most praise of manliness and has many enlightening discussions of literature, such as a passage about Henry James' anti-feminist ''Bostonians''.

Professor Mansfield discusses at length the writings of [[Ernest Hemingway]], who Mansfield calls "the writer in our time (or just before) most celebrated for manliness."  Mansfield compares Hemingway to Homer in the manliness of their works.
