Congratulations to Liane Malinowski, whose book City Housekeeping: Women’s Labor Rhetorics and Spaces for Solidarity, 1886-1911 has earned Honorable Mention for the CFSHRC Winifred Bryan Horner Outstanding Book Award. The book appears in Parlor Press's Studies in Rhetorics and Femisms series now edited by Jessica Enoch and Sharon Yam. Cheryl Glenn and Shirley Wilson Logan, the founding editors of the series, were the editors when City Housekeeping was accepted for the series.
The awards committee noted that "because of this excellent scholarship, feminist research will be further recognized as having a central and significant space in the study of labor as well as the history of rhetoric."
The Coalition of Feminist Scholars in the History of Rhetoric and Composition is a leading international organization that fosters inquiry in feminist histories, theories, and pedagogies of rhetoric and composition. As a network of diverse teachers and scholars, the Coalition promotes intersectionality, collaboration, and communication. Read more about the Coalition here.
Winfred Byran Horner was an extraordinary leader, mentor, scholar, and person, and this award honors her. She was also a friend of Parlor Press, so we are proud of Liane for hard work and excellent scholarship and grateful to the CFSHRC and the awards committee for the recognition.
