Readings in Feminist Rhetorical Theory
- Used Book in Good Condition
This collection highlights the comprehensive, diverse, accessible body of work that exists on understanding symbol use from feminist perspectives. Selections from the works of nine contemporary feminist theorists allow readers to explore a variety of ways of framing experiences and events. The voices of Cheris Kramarae, bell hooks, Gloria AnzaldÃºa, Mary Daly, Starhawk, Paula Gunn Allen, Trinh T. Minh-ha, Sally Miller Gearhart, and Sonia Johnson challenge traditional viewpoints and encourage new ways of thinking. The selections address how social change happens, the strategies available to promote change, and the consequences of changing dominant practices and constructs. The editors worked with many of the theorists to choose representative works from different genres that exemplify the trajectory of their ideas. Brief introductions provide biographical details of the lives of the theorists and contextualize the key ideas in the works selected.
