Aprašymas
Sonogram Rhetoric examines the rhetoric used in texts concerning human generation, including classical myth, medical writing, and midwifery manuals, to argue that women s bodies are understood within a medical framework of pathology directly related to their ability, or inability, to reproduce. While rhetoric has been historically concerned with the regulation of the productive male body, gynecology has been concerned with the discipline of the female reproductive body. In this sense, rhetoric texts and gynecological texts are sister discourses. McDermott examines these sister discourses by tracing key narrative moments in the development of thought about sexed bodies and about rhetorical discourse from its beginning in classical myth and medicine to the eighteenth and nineteenth century decline of midwifery and the rise of scientific writing on the reproductive body. This book offers a metaphorical method of invention and criticism that emphasizes the voices and bodies that have been left on the margins of the dominant histories of rhetoric."
