Time and the "True Light" in Lucretia Coffin Mott's "Discourse on Woman."
Zulick, Margaret D.; Leff, Michael
Rhetoric Society Quarterly, v25 p20-30 1995
Argues that some of the complexity and tension in Lucretia Coffin Mott's speech results from the conflicting demands of the immediate situation and the speaker's broader views on theological and social issues. Suggests the speech's inherent tensions are not fully resolved, particularly those between a typological sense of history and a progressive view of history. (TB)
