Peitho: Journal of the Coalition of Feminist Scholars in the History of Rhetoric

Peitho is the peer-reviewed journal of the Coalition of Feminist Scholars in the History of Rhetoric and Composition.

Published quarterly, Peitho seeks to encourage, advance, and publish original research in the history of rhetoric and composition. We invite article-length submissions on a wide range of topics related to feminist theories and gendered practices. We also invite shorter submissions for “Recoveries and Reconsiderations,” an annual forum for sharing innovative perspectives on existing feminist work, as well an incubator for new feminist research projects.

Cover Art: A collage of photos of roses created by Talitha May, taken at the International Rose Test Garden in Portland, Oregon. Emerging from the lower left corner are roses in variegated colors: pink, white, yellow, red. The upper right corner and background of the image are burgundy, with “Peitho 27.1 Fall 2024” in a yellow sans serif font in all caps. May remarks, “The piece takes inspiration from a fragment by Ibycus in which she nursed a baby among rose blossoms as well as the ideas of rhetoric and context.”
