Abstract:This special issue of 'Exchange' on Jesus traditions and masculinities in world Christianity starts with an introductory article on the historical trajectory of feminist theological debates on the maleness of Jesus Christ and the implications for configurations of gender in Christian traditions (by Adriaan S. van Klinken, Peter-Ben Smit). The issue further contains articles on Jesus Christ, homosexuality and masculinity in African Christianity (by Masiiwa Ragies Gunda); masculinities in the Pentecostalist Zimbabwe Assemblies of God Africa (by Ezra Chitando and KudzaiBiri); the Messianic burdens of black masculinity within African American communities (by Ronald B. Neal); Christ and the fantasies of boyhood, notably in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series (by Vandana Saxena); and the role of Christ of the Good Death as a key figure and symbol in a masculine performance by the Spanish Legion (by Henk Driessen and Willy Jansen).
