Prologemena to an Future Rhetoric of Shadows, Shades and Silhouettes
Utah State University From the SelectedWorks of Gene Washington January 2014 PROLOGEMENA TO AN FUTURE RHETORIC OF SHADOWS, SHADES AND SILHOUETTES Contact Start Your Own Notify Me Author SelectedWorks of New Work Available at: http://works.bepress.com/gene_washington/157 PROLEGOMENA TO ANY FUTURE RHETORIC OF SHADOWS, SHADES AND SILHOUETTES Man that is born of a woman hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down, like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow , and never continueth in one stay. In the mid of life we are in death (1662 Anglican Church "Burial of the Dead"). *** But mark, madam, we live amongst riddles and mysteries—the most obvious things, which come in our way, have dark sides, which the quickest sight cannot penetrate into; and even the clearest and most exalted understandings amongst us find ourselves puzzled and at a loss in almost every cranny of nature's works. Laurence Sterne (1713-68) Stepping out of the shadows…I…. Rhetoric, as a subject of investigation, is perhaps older than the invention of writing. One piece of evidence for this is its root in the Indo-European word, aera , "to say (something) with a specific intention" (Greek ρ in direct descent to the modern 1 age; please see Buck, entry under "speak, say,"). Another kind of evidence is the abundance of treatises on rhetoric, Aristotle, Cicero, Quintilian, Burke, Booth and Ong to mention some of the most prominent. Despite their differences in method, all these authors would perhaps agree that the key ingredient of rhetoric is author/speaker intentionality— the power of minds to be about, to represent, or to stand for, things, properties and states of affairs plus non-existent things. -

Recall the commitment of the African Heads of State to gender equality as a major goal of the AU as enshrined in Article 4 (1) of the Constitutive Act of the African Union, in particular the decision to implement and uphold the principle of gender parity both at regional and national level, as well as the Solemn Declaration on Gender Equality in Africa. -
Women Citizenship and Participatory Democracy in Developmental States in Africa: the Case of Kenya
Creating African Futures in an Era of Global Transformations: Challenges and Prospects Créer l’Afrique de demain dans un contexte de transformations mondialisées : enjeux et perspectives Criar Futuros Africanos numa Era de Transformações Globais: Desafios e Perspetivas بعث أفريقيا الغد في سياق التحوﻻت المعولمة : رهانات و آفاق Women Citizenship and Participatory Democracy in Developmental States in Africa: The Case of Kenya Felicia Yieke Women Citizenship and Participatory Democracy in Developmental States in Africa: The Case of Kenya Abstract There has been advocacy of equal rights and opportunities for women, and especially in the extension of women’s activities into the social, economic and political life. Indeed, there is a poor record of historical reflections on the relations between women and politics in African countries, at least in comparison with the abundant scientific production on the same in the Western world. Women’s access to power and active citizenship has thus been one of the main concerns of people who have been interested in a just and democratic society based on equality and social justice. However, it later became apparent that the political vote alone did not ensure women’s full access to the public sphere. This is because the majority of positions of power in education, business and politics have still been occupied by men. What this means is that women are still marginalised as far as access to democratic power is concerned. The room for expanding women’s representation and for sustaining a political focus on women’s issues has varied widely and is dependent on economic, historical and cultural factors as well as the effect of changing international norms. -
