ISHU 3043 - Women Writing for Change

Effective Start Date: 01/01/2011
Examines the rhetorical choices women have made from Medieval times to the present to create public arguments for social change in the face of cultural pressure to remain silent. Analyzes how women writers deliberately worked with cultural narratives of gender and used traditional and alternative texts. Explores how those decisions shape expectations of women in the public sphere today.
