Beskrivning
"Feminism" and "rhetoric" have not always been overlapping terms. While neglected as subjects of scholarly interest for many years, women were nonetheless developing rhetorical practices and traditions all along. In recent decades women writers, speakers, and feminist scholars have forged new theories of and practices for feminist rhetoric. These women have struggled to see, re-shape, and re-deploy the rhetorical tradition in ways that not only admit but embrace and celebrate women and feminist understandings to the benefit of all people. This volume is the culmination of much of the work done by those scholars.Edited by the leading experts in field, Cheryl Glenn and Andrea A. Lunsford, Landmark Essays on Rhetoric and Feminism earns its significance in several key ways: it includes work done by scholars from departments of communication, English, and writing studies as well as a variety of public intellectuals; it traces a series of encounters between rhetoric and feminism during the last three decades; and it highlights five themes that represent the history of encounters between rhetoric and feminism including (1) recovery and recuperation, (2) methods and methodologies, (3) practices and performances, (4) pedagogical applications and implications, and (5) new theories and histories.

Recensioner i media

These stunning essays, intrepid in their own time, remain a provocative challenge to the central assumptions of Western rhetoric. Deftly edited, they record the powerful role of feminist rhetoricians in creating new paradigms of theory, history, and pedagogy based in recognition, understanding, and collaboration. Arabella Lyon, University at BuffaloCheryl Glenn and Andrea A. Lunsford offer scholars of rhetoric and feminism an invaluable anthology, which features essays on recovery and recuperation, methods and methodologies, practices and performances, pedagogical applications and implications, and new theories and histories.Their selection of essays is exceptional in representing a range of standpoints and placing them in productive dialogue with each other.Considerations of sex, race, gender, class and other social differences are integral throughout the collection. The perspectives and performances of activists, critics, and theorists of feminism and rhetoric are made easily available for advanced study. Lester C. Olson, University of PittsburghThe productive tensions within "and"—a word of opposition, juxtaposition, connection, and continuation—resonate throughout this collection of seventeen formative essays on rhetoric and feminism ranging from the 1970s through the 1990s. Ultimately, the collection invites readers to wonder "and what’s next?" Michele Kennerly, The Pennsylvania State University
