The scholarly readings included in this volume illuminate the effects of gender, race, and power on the understandings of rhetoric throughout various historical periods. Students are introduced to theories that have been obscured or ignored through history but are critical for understanding the historicity of rhetoric and its relationship to power. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The anthology is divided into five units. Unit I introduces students to the critical\/cultural approach to theories of rhetoric, emphasizing the roles of politics and power on rhetoric. Units II through IV proceed chronologically. They provide readers with background on life during the respective time period and compelling readings that speak to the lost voices of the Classical Era, the gendered history of public speaking, the influence of Christianity on rhetoric during medieval times, visionary writing, the problematic belief systems of the Enlightenment, and more. The final unit challenges students to rethink and revise rhetorical theories according to the economic, political, and cultural influences of contemporary times. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Aptly demonstrating how rhetoric has evolved over time in accordance with society and its beliefs, \u003cem\u003eTheories of Rhetoric\u003c\/em\u003e is an ideal text for courses in rhetoric and rhetorical theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMary E.
