Interested in the nexus between sport, gender, and language, Sport, Rhetoric, and Gender deconstructs the role of rhetoric in the multi-billion dollar popular cultural/infotainment business. Wide-ranging, with contributors representing a number of different disciplines and athletic interests, this volume examines sport vis-à-vis the language surrounding and incorporated by it in the world arena. The book is divided into the following accessible sections: sport language; historical perspectives; print media representations; broadcast media representations; visual media representations; and classic case studies and is an original and insightful resource.
