Journalists played a significant role in transforming Mexican social and political life before and after the Revolution (1910-1920), and women were a part of this movement as publishers, writers, public speakers, and political activists. However, their contributions to the broad historical changes associated with the Revolution, as well as the pre- and post-revolutionary eras, are often excluded or overlooked. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This book fills a gap in feminine rhetorical history by providing an in-depth look at several important journalists who claimed rhetorical\u003ci\u003e puestos\u003c\/i\u003e, or public speaking spaces. The book closely examines the writings of Laureana Wright de Kleinhans (1842-1896), Juana Belén Gutiérrez de Mendoza (1875­-1942), the political group Las mujeres de Zitácuaro (1900), Hermila Galindo (1896-1954), and others. Grounded in the overarching theoretical lens of mestiza rhetoric, \u003ci\u003eOccupying Our Space\u003c\/i\u003e considers the ways in which Mexican women journalists negotiated shifting feminine identities and the emerging national politics of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. With full-length Spanish primary documents along with their translations, this scholarship reframes the conversation about the rhetorical and intellectual role women played in the ever-changing political and identity culture in Mexico.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Cristina Devereaux Ramírez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0816550328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780816550326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Arizona Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.91w x 0.71d","brand":"Cristina Devereaux Ramírez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49096751907071,"sku":"9780816550326","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/occupying-our-space-cristina-devereaux-ramzrez-9780816550326","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
