A collection representing a surprisingly varied range of roles or personas women have adopted to be able to speak or write publiclyJust as women in Greek myth are cast in roles ranging from the helpless and innocent to the manipulative and powerful, so women throughout the history of rhetoric have represented themselves as fulfilling roles that range from dependents or enablers of male authority to autonomous agents acting on their own. These essays examine the tactics women have employed in selfrepresentation and the feminist rhetorics that result. Contributors examine both past and present practices, highlighting correspondences between them and the ways those practices have varied, succeeded, or failed.Essays in part 1 consider how women historically have found ways to speak and write, while negotiating the limitations of their positions as women, as well as their spiritual, class, and ethnic roles. Essays in part 2 study the formal genres, strategies, and techniques female rhetoricians have used; and the essays of part 3 consider the contemporary challenges faced by women rhetors in a pluralistic world and the strategies and genres they have inherited and transformed.Collectively, the essays look at the rhetorical issue of roles and representations by crisscrossing time and selecting particular issues and/or figures. Rhetorical Women is unique in that it juxtaposes several historical contexts in order to spotlight the strategies of the women rhetors.
