  Rhetoric has long been a powerful and pervasive force in political and cultural life, yet the rhetorical training was generally reserved as a masculine privilege. Drawing upon a range of literary texts, this book sheds light on the early modern world, forms of rhetoric, and the role of women in the culture and politics of the time.
