Book Synopsis The Changing Tradition by : International Society for the History of Rhetoric. Conference
Book excerpt: Contains revised essays from a July 1997 conference, investigating why, and to what extent, women have been excluded from rhetoric, and what contributions they have nevertheless made to it in the past, as well as what they are doing in the field today. Essays are arranged to show the various ways in which received wisdom has been challenged and the rhetorical tradition revised. Topics include Plato's women, the ongoing appeal of St. Catherine of Siena, Lady Mary Wroth's Urania and the rhetoric of female abuse, and feminist thoughts on rhetoric.
