Unsettled Moments in Settled Discourse: Women Superintendents' Experiences of Inequality.
Brunner, C. Cryss
Educational Administration Quarterly, v36 n1 p76-116 Feb 2000
Using Swindler's settled discourse theory, examined 12 women superintendents' discourse to determine whether patterns in their talk about work experiences contain events or episodes of inequality. Five topics emerged: power, silence, style, responsibility, and people. Each was analyzed to discover how women treated such experiences in their discourse. (Contains 133 references.) (MLH)
