First published in 1987, the essays in this volume focus on questions of gender, property and power in the use of rhetoric and the practice of literary genres, and provide a historicised cultural critique. They analyse the links between rhetoric and property, but also representations of women as unruly, excessive, teleology-breaking figures intermeshing with feminist theory in the wake of Freud, Lacan and Derrida. A wide variety of texts from Genesis to Freud, by way of Shakespeare, Milton, Rousseau and Emily Brontë are examined, held together by a concern for the entanglements of rhetorical questions of literary plotting, hierarchy, ideological framing and political consequence.
