Reviews

"?Delightful Conviction succeeds where less in-depth works have failed; that is, while exploring the rich heritage of Edwardsean legacy, the authors have also found a way to make their study more than a history lesson. Their analysis of Edward's rhetorical practice provides insights into the discourse of a past age. Their theoretical discussions, particularly the link with postmodernity, may help to inform discourse in the age to come.?-Quarterly Journal of Speech ""Delightful Conviction succeeds where less in-depth works have failed; that is, while exploring the rich heritage of Edwardsean legacy, the authors have also found a way to make their study more than a history lesson.
