Persuasion Dwelt on Her Tongue: Female Civic Rhetoric in Early America

Janet Carey Eldred ; Peter Mortensen

Abstract

Taps research in American studies to learn more about rhetoric and writing instruction in post-Revolutionary America. Merges the separate (and gendered) histories of early 19th-century American rhetoric, breaking down the separate spheres in contemporary historical and literary scholarship. Examines civic rhetoric found in texts that represent women’s schooling.
