The Changing Tradition

Women in the History of Rhetoric

edited by Christine M. Sutherland & Rebecca Sutcliffe

tagged: feminist
Description

Until very recently, the contribution of women to the history of rhetoric has gone unacknowledged. Current scholarship, however, reveals that traditional devinitions of the field have been too narrow, excluding the work of women rhetoricians. The Changing Tradition: Women in the History of Rhetoric demonstrates that women have indeed been involved in the field of rhetoric, almost since its inception, and have made a significant impact.
