Recent work on the Platonic notion of the Guardian has focused on
the female Guardian, or "Philosopher Queen," but mainly insofar as
the idea is problematic. Okin, Saxonhouse, and others have tried to
be more precise about the concepts involved-this work aims to use
actual publications by British and continentally-trained women
aristocrats of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries to fill in
the lacunae. It is concluded that these women were not only
philosophical thinkers, but in some sense Guardians. Their overview
encompassed notions of duty, care, and a concern of the development
of the intellectual life that left a mark for future generations.
