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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45237659533463,"sku":"9781138212053","price":12867.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138212053.webp?v=1769217218","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/routledge-revivals-literary-fat-ladies-1987-rhetoric-gender-property-9781138212053","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
