Examines women preachers' strategies for rearranging rhetorical space. In this feminist investigation into the art of preaching - one of the oldest and least-studied rhetorical traditions - Roxanne Mountford explores the relationship between bodies, space, race, and gender in rhetorical performance and American Protestant culture. Refiguring delivery and physicality as significant components of the rhetorical situation, ""The Gendered Pulpit: Preaching in American Protestant Spaces"", now in paperback, examines the strategies of three contemporary women preachers who have transgressed traditions, rearranged rhetorical space, and conquered gender bias to establish greater intimacy with their congregations.
