Catherine Helen Palczewski

Professor

Communication

Research Interests

My research specialties include: rhetorical theory and criticism, feminist theory and criticism, political communication, social movements, and argumentation theory. Within these areas, I especially focus on the rhetorical constructions and implications of speaking from the margin.

Personal/Professional Interests

My own projects include an analysis of reproductive freedom rhetoric, a study of the anti-pornography movement, an examination of feminist humor, an analysis of Native American legal argument, and an exploration of the way cyber-movements function.  Web Site: http://www.uni.edu/palczews
