Traces Of A Stream (eBook, PDF)

Literacy and Social Change Among African American Women

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Traces of a Stream offers a unique scholarly perspective that merges interests in rhetorical and literacy studies, United States social and political theory, and African American women writers. Focusing on elite nineteenth-century African American women who formed a new class of women well positioned to use language with consequence, Royster uses interdisciplinary perspectives (literature, history, feminist studies, African American studies, psychology, art, sociology, economics) to present a well-textured rhetorical analysis of the literate practices of these women. Winner of the 2000 MLA Mina P. Shaughnessy Prize
