Newsome is a compelling example of a twenty-first century women rhetor, along with bloggers, writers, politicians, activists, artists, and everyday social media users, who give new meaning to Aristotle's ubiquitous definition of rhetoric as the discovery of the "available means of persuasion." Women's persuasive acts from the first two decades of the twenty-first century include new technologies, and repurposed old ones, engaged not only to persuade, but also to tell their stories, to sponsor change, and to challenge cultural forces that repress and oppress. Persuasive Acts: Women's Rhetorics in the Twenty-first Century gathers an expansive array of voices and texts, including well-known figures like Hillary Rodham Clinton, Malala Yousafzai, Michelle Obama, Lindy West, Sonia Sotomayor, and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, so that you may converse with them, extend them, and build rhetorics of your own. Editors Shari J. Stenberg and Charlotte Hogg have gathered timely and provocative rhetorics that represent critical issues and rhetorical affordances of the twenty-first century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a American essays $x Women authors $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Speeches, addresses, etc. $x Women authors $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Persuasion (Rhetoric) 650 0 $a Women $x Language. 650 0 $a Feminist theory. 650 0 $a Rhetoric $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Women $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 650 7 $a American essays $x Women authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807045 650 7 $a Feminist theory. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922816 650 7 $a Persuasion (Rhetoric) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01058895 650 7 $a Rhetoric $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01096959 650 7 $a Women $x Language. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176822 650 7 $a Women $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176947 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 700 1 $a Stenberg, Shari J., $e editor. 700 1 $a Hogg, Charlotte, $d 1970- $e editor. 830 0 $a Pittsburgh series in composition, literacy, and culture 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230302020207.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4C884C448E9811EAB83BD64B97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
