Western philosophy has long excluded the work of women thinkers
from their canon. Presenting Women Philosophers addresses this
exclusion by examining the breadth of women's contributions to
Western thought over some 900 years. Editors Cecile T. Tougas and
Sara Ebenreck have gathered essays and other writings that reflect
women's deep engagement with the meaning of individual experience
as well as the continuity of their philosophical concerns and
practices. Arranged thematically, the collection ranges across eras
and literary genres as it emphasizes the intellectual significance
of written work by key figures -- for example, Hildegard of
Bingen's visionary writings, Iris Murdoch's fiction, Hannah
Arendt's historical narratives, and the oral storytelling in black
women's literary tradition. The collection also brings to light the
philosophical importance of little-known work by such writers as
Mme de Sable and Mme de Condorcet. This wide-ranging collection
offers non-philosophers an introduction to women's thought but also
promises to engage advanced students of philosophy with new
research on unrecognized contributions.
