Teresa of Avila and the Rhetoric of Femininity by Alison Weber PDF Summary

Book Description: A case study of how women were able to function as leaders and intellectuals in cultures that forbade these roles in the most extreme way. "Weber's book reveals the many ambiguities of Teresa's narrative techniques. Weber's analysis of these shifting tones and strategies is original and stimulating, and is a valuable contribution to the study of this extraordinary woman".--Colin P. Thompson, "The Times Literary Supplement". *Lightning Print On Demand Title
