Expanding the scope of religious rhetoric/B> Over the past
twenty-five years, the intersection of rhetoric and religion has
become one of the most dynamic areas of inquiry in rhetoric and
writing studies. One of few volumes to include multiple traditions
in one conversation, Rhetoric and Religion in the Twenty-First
Century engages with religious discourses and issues that continue
to shape public life in the United States. This collection of
essays centralizes the study of religious persuasion and pluralism,
considers religion’s place in U.S. society, and expands the study
of rhetoric and religion in generative ways. The volume showcases a
wide range of religious traditions and challenges the very concepts
of rhetoric and religion. The book’s eight essays explore African
American, Buddhist, Christian, Indigenous, Islamic, and Jewish
rhetoric and discuss the intersection of religion with feminism,
race, and queer rhetoric—along with offering reflections on how
to approach religious traditions through research and teaching. In
addition, the volume includes seven short interludes in which some
of the field’s most accomplished scholars recount their
experiences engaging with religious rhetorics and invite readers to
engage these exigent lines of inquiry.  By featuring
these diverse religious perspectives, Rhetoric and Religion in the
Twenty-First Century complicates the field’s emphasis on Western,
Hellenistic, and Christian ideologies. The collection also offers
teachers of writing and rhetoric a range of valuable approaches for
preparing today’s students for public citizenship in our
religiously diverse global context.
