| Summary |
Discussion about the intersections of feminisms and rhetorics, the locations of feminist rhetorics, the various discourses that invoke "feminism" or "feminist," and the scholarship that provokes, challenges, and deliberates issues of key concern. The authors represented in this collection present potential consequences for communities in the academy and beyond, spanning international, geopolitical, racial, and religious contexts.--Adapted from cover page 4 |
