I adopt the phrase “scouringly thorough” from Sedgwick herself, though she applies it to the work of Judith Butler, not to the Epistemology (“Paranoid Reading,” p. 130).

Shem and Japheth, who cover Noah, expressed respect and obedience as well as modesty whereas Ham, who did take a glance at his father’s penis, broke a taboo that no Israelite should ever even consider: glancing at the father’s/God’s phallus (God’s Phallus and Other Problems for Men and Monotheism [Boston: Beacon Press, 1994], pp. 91–97).
