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

Informationen zum Autor Lynne Pearce is Professor in Literary Theory and Women's Writing at the University of Lancaster. Klappentext 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. Zusammenfassung Through close stylistic and rhetorical analysis across contemporary feminist writing, Lynne Pearce demonstrates how feminist thought is created as well as communicated by the frameworks in which it is presented.
