Rhetorics of Feminism Readings in Contemporary Cultural Theory and the Popular Press

Is it possible that changes in rhetorical practice could alter not just how thought is expressed, but also how it is made? Through a close stylistic and rhetorical analysis of contemporary feminist writing - from the cultural theory of Judith Butler to the popular journalism of Naomi Wolf and Germaine Greer - Lynne Pearce demonstrates how feminist thought is created as well as communicated through the frameworks in which it is presented. By linking rhetorical innovation with feminist epistemology in such a direct way, this is a book that will be of immense methodological as well as theoretical interest to readers, providing valuable insight into the often mysterious processes of conception and composition.Pearce, Lynne is the author of 'Rhetorics of Feminism Readings in Contemporary Cultural Theory and the Popular Press' with ISBN 9780415281829 and ISBN 0415281822.
